OBJECTIVES: Study is allowed in all fields of pure and applied<br>
science and engineering that are directly related to acoustics.
These<br>
include: Acoustical Oceanography; Architectural Acoustics; Animal<br>
Bioacoustics; Biomedical Ultrasound and Bioresponse to
Vibration;<br>
Engineering Acoustics; Musical Acoustics; Noise; Physical Acoustics;<br>
Psychological Acoustics; Physiological Acoustics; Signal Processing
in<br>
Acoustics; Speech Communication; Structural Acoustics and Vibration;<br>
and Underwater Acoustics. <br><br>
ELIGIBILITY<br>
<p>To be eligible for the fellowship, the applicant must
have<br>
permanent residence or citizenship in the United States at the time
of<br>
application. He/she must also be a member of a minority group<br>
(Hispanic, African American or Native American) that is<br>
underrepresented in the sciences. Evidence of acceptance into, or
good<br>
academic standing in, a graduate degree program is also<br>
required.</p><br><br>
FUNDING<br>
<p>The award consists of a $20,000 stipend for one
academic<br>
year, to be dispensed over a twelve-month period through the host<br>
institution. The award will be renewed for a second year of graduate<br>
study, upon receipt of a report indicating that the recipient is<br>
making normal progress toward the degree and will remain a full-time<br>
student in good academic standing at this university. The sponsor<br>
strongly encourages the host educational institution to waive all<br>
tuition costs and assessed fees, in recognition of the stipend
award.<br>
In addition, the award will cover travel for the student recipient,
up<br>
to a total of $1,000, to attend a national meeting of the Acoustical<br>
Society of America during the fellowship year. (ebd)
