Hertz Foundation Graduate Fellowships

The Graduate Fellowship Award is based on merit with no consideration of need and consists of a cost-of-education allowance and a personal-support stipend. The cost-of-education allowance is accepted by all the tenable schools in lieu of all fees and tuition. Applicants must be students in the applied physical, biological and engineering sciences. Only students interested in pursuing doctoral degrees are eligible. The Hertz provides funding for up to five years and can be coordinated with the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship. Graduating seniors and graduates who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents are eligible.
