NSF NCAR's Advanced Study Program's Graduate Visitor Program (GVP) Fellowship is an excellent way to spend time at NSF NCAR and work on parts of your thesis, or final project equivalent, with guidance from NCAR scientists and engineers. The GVP also is an opportunity to develop research collaborations at NSF NCAR and to participate in professional development workshops and seminars. Before submitting an application, the student must identify a NSF NCAR scientist or engineer who will serve as a host. The student will need to contact the scientist or engineer to confirm they are available to mentor the student on tasks related to the student's thesis or final project. Applicants must be advanced Masters and Ph.D. students in good standing at their home institution with focuses on atmospheric and related Earth and geospace sciences, space weather, engineering, social sciences, and scientific computing. Students enrolled in degree-granting institutions in the U.S. (including U.S. Territories) are eligible to apply, as well as students with U.S. citizenship or permanent resident status enrolled at universities outside the United States. Students enrolled at universities outside the U.S. must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident (Green Card holder). All students from international universities are required to have health insurance for their stay in the U.S. The deadline to submit this application is November 1, 2024. The deadline to submit a host nomination is November 6, 2024. The GVP strives to have diverse representation of universities and student backgrounds in the graduate student cohort each year and encourages applications from individuals who are members of a group that is historically underrepresented in the atmospheric and related sciences, including students who are Black or African American, American Indian or Alaska Native, Hispanic or Latino, female, first generation college students, students with disabilities, students who identify as LGBTQ+, and Veterans. Alumni of NCAR/UCAR undergraduate internships and the GVP Bridge are encouraged to apply. Please visit the fellowship's website for more information.
