Program areas at The Krell Institute

The department of energy computational science graduate fellowship program selects highly qualified students and supports their research and academic study for up to four years of their phd graduate work in a computational science and engineering discipline area that is important to The united states department of energy's office of science and national nuclear security administration. The doe csgf fellows must complete a program of study at a united states research university, spend at least twelve consecutive weeks at a department of energy laboratory working on a research project of importance to The nation, and attend an annual program review to share their research experience with other students in The doe computational science graduate fellowship program and with department of energy headquarters and laboratory research staff. During fy2023, 40 fellows completed a research practicum and 39 students were selected to receive fellowships, bringing The total number of fellows in The program to 128. Fellows were enrolled at 47 different research universities in The united states. Of The 29 fellows who completed their fellowship during The fiscal year, all have self-reported that they are continuing work on their phd, are post-doctoral students or have graduated and are working. Selfreported employment showed that 14% of doe csgf alumni are currently employed at doe laboratories.
The bssw fellowship program fosters and promotes practices, processes, and tools to improve developer productivity and software sustainability of scientific codes. Bssw fellows are selected annually based on an application process that includes The proposal of a funded activity that promotes better scientific software. During fy2023, six fellows were selected, and six honorable mention (non-awards) were awarded. Each fellow received an award for an activity that promotes better scientific software, such as organizing a workshop, preparing a tutorial, or creating content to engage The scientific community.
The stewardship science graduate fellowship (ssgf) program selects highly qualified students in stewardship science disciplines that are important to The united states department of energy's national nuclear security administration. Stewardship science includes areas of study relative to high energy density physics, nuclear science, materials under extreme conditions, and hydrodynamics. The fellows complete a program of study at a united states research university, spend at least twelve consecutive weeks at a department of energy national defense laboratory working on a research project of importance to The nation, and attend an annual symposium to share their research experience with other students in The stewardship science graduate fellowship program and with department of energy headquarters and laboratory research staff. During fy2023, six fellows completed The phd fellowship program and are now employed in either postdoctoral programs, in an educational field, or at department of energy laboratories. Five new students were selected to receive fellowships, bringing The total number of fellows in The program to 19. Ssgf fellows are enrolled at 15 different research universities in The united states. The department of energy national nuclear security administration laboratory residency graduate fellowship (doe nnsa lrgf) selects and supports students pursuing a ph.d. In areas of engineering and applied sciences, physics, materials and mathematics and computational science that address complex science and engineering problems critical to stewardship science. The fellows complete a program of study at a united states research university, spend at least two twelve week residencies at a department of energy national defense laboratory working on a research project of importance to The nation, and attend an annual symposium to share their research experience with other students in The laboratory residency graduate fellowship program and with department of energy headquarters and laboratory research staff. During fy2023, six new students were selected to receive fellowships, bringing The total number of fellows in The program to 16. Seven fellows completed The phd fellowship program and are now employed at department of energy laboratories, in academia, within nnsa, or in industry. Lrgf fellows are enrolled at 13 different research universities in The united states.
