Schatz Energy Fellowship for Graduate Studies

The Schatz Energy Research Center (SERC) is pleased to offer the Schatz Energy Fellowship for graduate studies at Humboldt State University. Applicants for the Environmental Resources Engineering (ERE) and Energy, Environment, and Society (EES) options of the Environmental Systems Graduate Program who intend to focus on renewable energy or energy efficiency related work may be considered for the fellowship.

The fellowship provides $10,000 in support during the academic year to the selected student. The fellowship may be renewed once to cover a second year of graduate study. The fellow is expected to participate in research activities at SERC during the nine month academic year. The fellowship does not guarantee summer employment at SERC, although this is a possibility depending on the availability of funds to compensate this additional work, as well as the fellow’s skills and initiative.

Applicants for the Schatz Energy Fellowship should submit the following materials on or before February 15:

1. A 500-word essay describing the line of research or project work that the student intends to pursue while studying at Humboldt State.
2. Copies of all materials submitted to Humboldt State for application to the Environmental Systems Graduate Program (including the statement of purpose essay, letters of recommendation, academic transcripts, GRE scores, and a current résumé).

Submit applications to:
