35 PhD Fellowships Available
DNN’s Enabling Capabilities in Technology (TECH) Consortium has 35 fellowship positions available for PhD-seeking graduate students who have interest in research careers at DOE/NNSA’s national laboratories.
DNN’s TECH Consortium aims to create new scientific knowledge in areas critical to the nuclear nonproliferation mission, to apply new knowledge to enable new nuclear nonproliferation capabilities, and to generate the human capital needed for the US national laboratories to address emerging challenges in nuclear nonproliferation.
We are comprised of leading experts from fifteen universities and eight national labs in the areas of
- Earth, environmental, atmospheric, and space science
- Radiochemistry, nuclear chemistry, and nuclear chemical engineering
- Advanced nuclear fuel and reactor systems engineering
- Detection, characterization, and response methodologies and tools
- Data science for nuclear nonproliferation
DNN’s TecH consortium fellowships, which require US citizenship or permanent residency, will provide for:
- tuition, stipend, and health insurance,
- a summer internship at one of the partner national laboratories,
- at least one consortium-sponsored summer school or workshop,
- travel to consortium meetings and national or international conferences in your area of discipline
