[SRM] Funded Grad Opportunities in Ecosystems Genomics- NSF Research Traineeship, UArizona

[Ingram, Heather C - (hci)]

Good afternoon-


We are excited to share a new National Science Foundation Research Traineeship opportunity offered by the University of Arizona in Fall 2021. The Building Resources for InterDisciplinary training in Genomic and Ecosystem Sciences (BRIDGES) program offers:



  *   An exciting training and professional development opportunity within a community of scholars who foster inclusive excellence through diversity of cultures, disciplines, and demographies;



  *   Competitive student fellowships ($34,000 stipend per year for up to two years, plus tuition waiver);



  *   Choice of biologically-oriented transdisciplinary graduate training programs, from ecology and evolution, to plant, insect and environmental sciences to big data science and engineering to atmospheric sciences.


We welcome and encourage applications by students representing all dimensions of diversity. While fellowship awards are restricted by NSF rules to US citizens and permanent residents, we are pleased that international students may be considered for participation in many aspects of our training program.


Applications received by December 1, 2020 have priority, but all applications received by  January 10, 2021 will be considered.

The University of Arizona sits on the original homelands of indigenous peoples who have stewarded this land since time immemorial. Aligning with the university’s core value of a diverse and inclusive community, it is an institutional responsibility to recognize and acknowledge the people, culture and history that make up the Wildcat community. At the institutional level, it is important to be proactive in broadening awareness throughout campus to ensure our students feel represented and valued.
