National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate (NDSEG) Fellowship Program
Purpose
The NDSEG Fellowship Program is a Department of Defense (DoD) fellowship program sponsored by Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), the Army Research Office (ARO), the Office of Naval Research (ONR), and High Performance Computing Modernization Program (HPCMP). The DoD is committed to increasing the number and quality of our Nation's scientists and engineers. The actual number of awards varies from year to year, depending upon the available funding. The NDSEG Fellows do not incur any military or other service obligations.
NDSEG Fellowships will be awarded to applicants who will pursue a doctoral degree in, or closely related to, one of the following disciplines having the greatest benefit to national security:
- Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering
- Biosciences
- Chemical Engineering
- Chemistry
- Civil Engineering
- Cognitive, Neural, and Behavioral Sciences
- Computer and Computational Science
- Electrical Engineering
- Geosciences
- Materials Science and Engineering
- Mathematics
- Mechanical Engineering
- Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering
- Oceanography
- Physics
The DoD is also very interested in supporting the education of future scientists and engineers in a number of interdisciplinary areas that overlap the disciplines listed above. Areas of particular interest include acoustics, computer architecture, and nanosciences. Applicants interested in pursuing study in interdisciplinary areas should apply under one of the disciplines listed above and indicate their specific areas of interest in the application essays. Applicants who are interested in interdisciplinary fields should apply under the discipline that most closely matches the course of study they are proposing to pursue in graduate school.
