Center ICE supports two types of fellowships, and we are looking for applicants to apply for each of them for the spring 2024 semester. 

For graduate students interested in innovation, Center ICE offers an Innovation Fellowship. This fellowship partners with academic departments to combine a 10-hour fellowship with a 10-hour TA-ship through the interested students' department so that students can explore the world of innovation and gain hands-on experience working on innovative projects. The fellowship will also pay half of university tuition and the fees for the semester. Students also explore the potential impact of their research and their own career interests. 

For students with an applied research project or an entrepreneurial project, Center ICE funds an Entrepreneurial Fellowship. This full fellowship helps the student explore the potential of their project and learn skills to move that project closer to reaching the people or groups that need their solution the most.

To apply for either fellowship, students need to answer some questions about their interests and current research, and provide a support letter from their advisor. To learn more about both programs and apply, click here. The application period closes Tuesday, Nov. 28.
