NRC Announces $15 Million in Nuclear Educaton Grant Opportunities |
|
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has announced nuclear education grant opportunities for trade school scholarships, undergraduate scholarships, graduate fellowships, and faculty development to qualified academic institutions for FY 2008.
Congress authorized the agency to provide $15 million in grants to support education in nuclear science, technology, and engineering to develop a workforce capable of supporting the design, construction and operation, and regulation of commercial nuclear facilities, and handling nuclear materials safely.
“Congress realizes that the United States is experiencing a renewed interest in nuclear power,” said Chairman Klein. “The NRC has already received several applications for new reactors. To meet expected workforce needs in this regard, it is vital that the country provide opportunities that will encourage careers and research in nuclear engineering and related fields.”
The nuclear education opportunity for grants is currently available on
www.grants.gov, the central storehouse for information on federally funded grant programs. NRC’s Nuclear Education Grants provide funding for undergraduate scholarships, graduate fellowships, trade school scholarships, and faculty development grants. The exact amount of funds that NRC may recommend for grants is determined in pre-award negotiations between the applicant and the agency. NRC only awards grants directly to accredited U.S. institutions of higher education and does not award individual scholarships or fellowships.
The contacts for more information on these grants are as follows: Administrative questions, contact Nicole Pratt, Division of Contracts, (301) 415-0236; and technical questions, contact John Gutterridge, Office of Human Resources (301) 492-2313. The full text of the announcement is available on
www.grants.gov.
