Schmidt Science Fellows Program
GEPA is accepting nominations for the Schmidt Science Fellows program, from which UC San Diego will nominate up to 7 applicants to represent the university. The Schmidt Science Fellows program aims to develop the next generation of science leaders to transcend disciplines, advance discovery, and solve the world’s most pressing problems. Schmidt Science Fellows are expected to be future leaders and should demonstrate a keen interest in harnessing interdisciplinarity and interaction with wider society to accelerate discovery to achieve global impact. Fellows will be supported by the program to undertake a full-time, postdoctoral study for at least one year in a world-leading laboratory in a field different from their existing area of expertise.
Friends of the International Center Fellowships
The Friends of the International Center (FIC) was a non-profit, all-volunteer organization founded in 1961 (dissolved September 2021) whose mission statement was to support international education, to foster friendship, understanding, and cooperation within the international community, and to create a meeting place on the UC San Diego campus for people who share these aims. The FIC generously established a graduate fellowship endowment fund to support their mission in perpetuity at UC San Diego. Up to 10 graduate fellowships of $2,000 each will be awarded for 2024-25.
Guru Gobind Singh Fellowship
In 1988 the University of California received a bequest from the late Mr. Karam Singh Maughan to establish an endowment to support graduate fellowships, named for Guru Gobind Singh, the Sikh religious leader. Awards are intended for graduates of universities in a specific area of India and Pakistan (see map on Collab page) for the purpose of pursuing graduate study at the University of California.
