Students

A. National Science Foundation (NSF) Fellowships

A small number of NSF fellowships will be granted in 2008. At a minimum, NSF fellows MUST:

• be a US citizen;
• be a graduate student;

• apply to one of the universities/research institutions listed below:

  NCBS	Bangalore
  IIIT	Bangalore
  IIIT	Hyderabad
  IIT Madras; TeNet Group	Chennai
  IIT-B	Mumbai
  IIT-K	Kanpur
  IISc	Bangalore
  TIFR Tata Institute for Fundamental Research	Mumbai

We believe that through this program, our students will be integrated into groundbreaking research projects that are closely linked to their own graduate work at MIT.

B. MIT-India IUSSTF Internship Travel Grant

The Indo-US Science and Technology Forum (IUSSTF) provides travel grants to MIT, Harvard, and Wellesley students for three-month internships in India. Both IUSSTF and MIT-India are committed to the common goal of nurturing contacts between scientists and technologists at an early career stage. We believe this goal can be achieved by promoting internships for students to work in educational, academic, R&D institutions, and non-governmental organizations in India. To apply, use the online application form.

C. MIT-India/IFMR-OCW Fellowship

The Institute for Financial Management and Research (IFMR), Chennai has provided a grant for 4 senior economics/sloan students to adapt MIT-OCW courses to be taught in India.
