Nuclear Engineering and Health Physics Fellowship Program

Unfortunately, the NEHP Scholarship and Fellowship program has been suspended.
No new awards will be made in 2008.

This program is designed to meet the Department of Energy's (DOE) needs for appropriately trained personnel for the maintenance and development of nuclear power technology and for research related to ongoing programs at DOE facilities. Increasing costs for graduate education and a high demand for nuclear engineers and health physicists with a bachelor's degree have had a negative impact on the number of well-qualified students seeking advanced degrees in fission technologies and the related sciences. However, current and planned uses of fission reactors for energy generation and research support at DOE facilities emphasize the importance of appropriately educated, highly qualified nuclear engineers and health physicists with advanced degrees. The fellowship program is designed to encourage talented students to continue their education and seek an advanced degree in a related nuclear energy field. The program will assist in preparing students for leadership roles in fission technology and will support the broader objective of advancing fission energy through the research efforts of the fellows.
