The Leadership Alliance/Schering-Plough Fellowship

This fellowship is made possible by an award from the Schering-Plough Foundation.

To support underrepresented graduate students in the physical or life sciences, by providing supplemental dissertation awards for students to pursue professional development opportunities as they near completion of their Ph.D.

• A student must be nominated in order to apply for this fellowship; students cannot apply directly to the Leadership Alliance. Only students that have been officially advanced to candidacy are eligible. Each Leadership Alliance institution with eligible students is invited to submit up to two nominations. Leadership Alliance coordinators may nominate students or accept nominations from faculty members. Letters of nomination and completed application forms must be forwarded to the Leadership Alliance by March 1, 2005.
• Applications will be reviewed in April 2005 by a committee of four delegates from Leadership Alliance member institutions. The Leadership Alliance will notify all applicants in May.
