Eighteen Dartmouth students and alumni have been awarded National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowships for 2023, and another six received honorable mentions.
The program is designed to maintain a strong “human resource base of science and engineering in the United States and reinforces its diversity,” . Fellows receive a three-year annual stipend of $37,000 along with a $12,000 cost-of-education allowance for tuition and fees. The fellowships may only be used at eligible graduate-degree programs with a campus in the United States, its territories, possessions, or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.
“I offer my heartiest congratulations to our NSF-GRFP recipients, and also to those receiving honorable mentions. This award represents a significant academic achievement at a national level, and the Guarini School and all of Dartmouth are incredibly proud of these outstanding scholars,” says , dean of the and the Rodgers Ӱ of Chemistry.
