Special Announcement
- To ensure greater efficiency in its research and fellowship programs, EPA has decided to offer undergraduate fellowships through the Greater Research Opportunities (GRO) program and graduate fellowships through the Science to Achieve Results (STAR) program. The graduate Greater Research Opportunities (GRO) program will no longer be offered. Students interested in graduate funding should apply through the STAR fellowship program.
If you have questions please use the comment form or contact the fellowship hotline at 1-800-490-9194.
- EPA is awarding fellowships for both the 2008 and 2009 academic years from the pool of applications received from the 2008 Request for Applications (RFA). Those award recommendations have been made, recipients were notified, and the awards are being processed for both the 2008 and 2009 academic years. EPA will not issue a new RFA for the STAR Fellowship Program for the 2009 academic year. This decision allows the Agency to maintain a high quality program and maximize its efficiency, while continuing to make fellowships available to deserving students. EPA remains committed to the goal of developing and training the next generation of environmental professionals to help solve complex environmental problems. EPA expects the 2010 Academic Year STAR Fellowship RFA to open in the summer of 2009.

GRO Undergraduate Fellowships
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is offering Greater Research Opportunities Undergraduate Fellowships for bachelor level students in environmentally related fields of study for FY2009. The announcement for the FY2009 program is now open.
Eligible students will receive support for their junior and senior years of undergraduate study and for an internship at an EPA facility during the summer between their junior and senior years. The fellowship provides up to $17,000 per year of academic support and up to $7,500 of internship support for the three-month summer period.
American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) Science and Engineering Fellows Program
Since 1981, EPA's NCER has managed the AAAS Science and Engineering Fellows Program, in cooperation with the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). The fellowship program is designed to provide an opportunity to learn first-hand how scientific and technological information is used in environmental policy-making; to provide a unique public policy learning experience; to demonstrate the value of science, technology, and economics in addressing societal problems; and to make practical contributions to the more effective use of scientific and technical knowledge in the programs of the U.S. government. Fellows will work in offices throughout the EPA on projects of mutual interest to the Fellows and the hosting offices. Applications are accepted by AAAS in the fall of each year. For more information go to the AAAS fellowship site: http://fellowships.aaas.org/index.shtml 
Association of Schools of Public Health (ASPH) Fellows Program
To enhance the training of highly qualified and motivated public health professionals, EPA has partnered with the Association of Schools of Public Health (ASPH) to offer a professional development program for graduates of accredited US Schools of Public Health. Graduates apply to ASPH in December or January for one-year placements in EPA laboratories or offices to work on high-priority, environmental, public health issues. Fellows work with technical mentors to design projects that capitalize on their individual skills and interests while addressing important environmental public health goals. Applicants must be US citizens or hold a visa permitting permanent residence in the U.S. For additional information go to: http://www.asph.org/document.cfm?page=751&JobProg_ID=1
EPA Marshall Scholarship Program
In recognition of the global nature of environmental challenges and the need to pool the resources of many nations to solve environmental problems, EPA has joined with the United Kingdom's Marshall Aid Commemoration Commission, which has been administering the esteemed Marshall Scholarship since 1953. Through an EPA Marshall Scholarship, up to three talented individuals with strong backgrounds in environmentally relevant sciences are selected each year to receive up to five years of graduate education assistance. The first two years are supported by the UK through a Marshall Scholarship to a university in Great Britain. Successful candidates may receive up to three additional years of support towards a doctoral degree, either in England or in the US. Applications are due each year in October. Go to the Marshall Scholarship web site for more information: http://www.marshallscholarship.org/ .
