OBJECTIVES: <br>
The sponsor supports graduate students working towards the
Ph.D.<br>
degree in the applied physical, biological and engineering sciences.<br>
These fields include applied mathematics, statistics, and
quantitative<br>
aspects of modern biology. Here, "applied" is broadly construed
to<br>
mean fields of endeavor in which one applies, invents, and/or
develops<br>
results from the basic physical sciences to generate solutions to<br>
problems of comparatively near-term, widespread human interest. The<br>
Foundation does not support study in pursuit of the M.D. Degree or<br>
work in descriptive biology, although it may support the Ph.D.
portion<br>
of a joint M.D./Ph.D. study program. <br><br>
ELIGIBILITY<br>
The sponsor supports graduate students working towards the
Ph.D.<br>
degree in applications of the physical sciences. Eligible applicants<br>
must be students of the applied physical sciences who are citizens
or<br>
permanent residents of the United States of America. College seniors<br>
wishing to pursue the Ph.D. degree in any of the fields of
particular<br>
interest to the sponsor, as well as graduate students already in the<br>
process of doing so, may apply. <br><br>
FUNDING<br>
The award, which is based on merit, not need, consists of a<br>
cost-of-education allowance and a personal-support stipend. The<br>
cost-of-education allowance is accepted at the tenable schools in
lieu<br>
of fees and tuition. There are two fellowship options. The
Five-Year<br>
Hertz (Option 1) includes a stipend, paid over the nine-month
academic<br>
year, of $31,000. The award is renewable annually for up to five<br>
years. Applicants may also choose to apply for the Five-Year<br>
Coordinated (Option 2), which includes two years of support from the<br>
sponsor with a $36,000 stipend for each nine-month academic period,<br>
and a three year period in which the awardee accepts a fellowship
from<br>
another source and receives a $3,500 per year supplemental stipend<br>
from the sponsor. There is a $5,000 additional stipend for
Fellows<br>
with dependent children. (des) <br><br>
