Current Utah Student Application Form

University of Utah

IGERT Training Program in Nanobiosensors, Nanomaterials, and Microfluidics

Funded by the National Science Foundation

ACADEMIC YEAR 2012 - 2013

Description: This form should be used by current, first-year University of Utah graduate students who are interested in joining the IGERT training program. To support their multidisciplinary and integrative education, students will propose co-advisors from two different disciplines, one in science and one in engineering to supervise their dissertation research. Co-advisors must be IGERT faculty members, with one from the student's home department. You can review the Program Description and view a list of Participating Faculty Members for more information about the University of Utah IGERT program.

Funding: IGERT Fellows in good standing are guaranteed funding for the course of their Ph.D. study. Two years of study are funded by the IGERT grant (which includes a stipend of $30,000 and full tuition coverage), and subsequent years are funded at standard departmental levels either by faculty research grants or other fellowships. IGERT Fellows are encouraged to seek external fellowship opportunities, such as the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowships, the National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate Fellowships (NDSEG), or the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science Graduate Fellowships.
