*The UA/NASA Space Grant Steering Committee is soliciting applications for
the 2013-14 Space Grant Graduate Fellowships *****

We seek new and continuing UA graduate students interested in promoting the
understanding of scientific research to the public whose program of study
addresses any aspect of NASA's mission (including elements as diverse as
Space and Earth Sciences/Engineering, Science Policy, and Science
Education). The fellowship, co-sponsored by UA/NASA Space Grant and the
applicant's nominating Department, includes a stipend of $16,000 for one or
two years, both in- and out-of-state fee/tuition waivers, student health
insurance, and $750/year for travel to professional meetings. Though award
totals vary based on individual circumstances (whether the student
requires/utilizes the out-of-state tuition waiver, numbers of enrolled
class units, etc.), 2012 fellowships range in value from $26,800-$48,700. **
**

Applications--including a transcript, two letters of recommendation,
letters of support (optional) from those cooperating in the education
outreach effort, and the Department Head's signature committing to the
departmental cost share--are due in the Space Grant Office (Room 349,
Kuiper Space Sciences Building) by* **Friday, April 5, 2013*. Awards for
fall 2013 will be announced in on or about April 26.****

You may learn more at an information session on Wednesday, March 27 from
12-1:15 PM, in Kuiper Space Science Building Conference Room 309, where our
current graduate fellows will give presentations on their FY 2012
educational outreach programs. Our website****

(http://spacegrant.arizona.edu/opportunities/fellowships) provides the
application form and more detailed information on eligibility and
fellowship requirements.****
