BEM Community,
I wanted to send a reminder about DOE's new IBUILD (Innovation in Buildings) graduate research fellowship. This is an NSF-style fellowship that provides graduate students with tuition, a stipend and a travel budget. Unlike NSF fellowships, this one specifically targets students doing research in areas relevant to building energy efficiency and demand flexibility and provides additional opportunities for interaction and mentorship at both BTO (Building Technologies Office) and the national labs. The application deadline for the 2021-22 academic year is Dec. 1, 2020. More details and application links here: https://ibuildfellowship.org/. Have a happy and safe thanksgiving!
