| Graduate Fellowship Support |
|
The Intel Foundation supports three graduate fellowship programs at select universities in the United States. These fellowships are awarded to outstanding students in Engineering, Computer Science and other technical majors focusing on semiconductor technologies, micro-architecture, and communications. Internship opportunities are available to graduate fellows, and all Ph.D. fellows are invited to an annual Ph.D. Fellowship Forum to learn more about Intel technology and share their research.

In 2005, the Intel Foundation provided $2.5 million in support for the following three fellowship programs:
-
Intel Foundation Ph.D. Fellowship Program
The Intel Foundation Ph.D. Fellowship Program awards two-year fellowships to Ph.D. candidates pursuing leading-edge work in fields related to Intel's business and research interests. Fellowships are available at select U.S. universities, by invitation only, and focus on Ph.D. students who have completed at least one year of study. The program encourages applicants from underrepresented minority groups, including women. The fellowship includes a cash award (tuition/fees/stipend), an Intel® architecture-based laptop gifted by Intel Corporation, an Intel mentor, an invitation to the Fellowship Forum at Intel in October, and the opportunity to participate in an internship at Intel. This is a highly competitive program with approximately 40 fellowships awarded annually. The two-year fellowship is renewable for up to two years pending review by the Intel Foundation.
Contact your school's engineering or computer science department to determine if your school is one of the participating schools, or to receive additional information. Applications are not accepted directly from students.
For the 2005-06 academic year, the Intel Foundation awarded $1.8 million through 43 fellowships to Ph.D. students from 17 U.S. universities. Twenty fellowships focused on semiconductor and manufacturing technologies, 14 on systems technologies, and nine on software technologies. This year, 18 of the Ph.D. fellowships were awarded to women and underrepresented minorities. Fellowship recipients are Ph.D. candidates at the following universities: Arizona State, California Institute of Technology, Columbia, Cornell, Georgia Institute of Technology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Oregon State, Princeton, Purdue, Stanford, University of Michigan, University of Washington, University of California Berkeley, University of California -Los Angeles, University of Illinois - Urbana-Champaign, and University of Texas-Austin.

The National Consortium for Graduate Degrees* for Minorities in Engineering and Science (GEM)
The Intel Foundation collaborates with GEM, which focuses on supporting graduate education for underrepresented minorities at the master's and Ph.D. levels. In 2009, fellowships were awarded to seven master's and ten Ph.D. students. Please contact GEM for any questions about its program or application process.
-
The Semiconductor Research Corporation* (SRC)
The Intel Foundation collaborates with SRC, which focuses on master's and Ph.D. level programs for women and underrepresented minorities in the area of semiconductor research. In 2009, the SRC granted fellowships to support three master's and five Ph.D. students, studying semiconductor technology. Please contact the SRC for any questions about its program or application process.
