NSPIRE IGERT Graduate Fellowship Program
WSU will receive $6 million over five years from NSF's flagship Integrative Graduate Education and Research Training (IGERT) interdisciplinary program to fund approximately 60 new doctoral students across three program areas.
Of particular interest is the NSPIRE (Nitrogen Systems: Policy-oriented Integrated Research and Education) IGERT program at Washington State University. The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering is an active participant in the program directed by the interdisciplinary Center for Environmental Research and Education Outreach (CEREO) at Washington State University.
In 2009, two CEE graduate students have received NSPIRE IGERT fellowships, while several LAR/CEE faculty are involved in managing the new program. More information is available on the NSPIRE website.
