Jefferson Lab and Jefferson Science Associates, LLC, are pleased to announce the JSA/JLab Distinguished Theory Student Fellowship, a program creating a new generation of theoretical physicists.

Students in the final year of their undergraduate degree programs are invited to apply for the two-year fellowship, which will be based at the US Department of Energy's Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility in Newport News, Virginia.

The fellowship recipient will be a full member of Jefferson Lab's Theory Center and will be enrolled at Hampton University, Old Dominion University or The College of William and Mary, where he or she will obtain a PhD. In addition to a stipend and tuition, the fellowship provides a supplement of $3,000 per annum, an annual travel allowance of $2,000, and a grant in the first year of $2,000 for a computer, books and supplies. At the end of the fellowship, the recipient will be supported by Jefferson Lab, provided he or she pursues a program of research of interest to Jefferson Lab's Theory Center.
