EPA Awards Research Fellowships, Including 2 In Pennsylvania

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Thursday announced more than $1.65 million in research fellowships to 33 students pursuing degrees in environmental science and related fields through its Greater Research Opportunities Fellowship program.

There were two awarded in Pennsylvania: Tabea Klassen Zimmerman, Environmental Science, Dickinson University and Emily Marie Crossette, Civil and Environmental Engineer, Lafayette College.

“For 30 years, EPA’s GRO program has nurtured and supported new generations of America’s workforce as they prepare to enter the environmental science and public health fields,” Lek Kadeli, acting assistant administrator for EPA’s Office of Research and Development. “This year’s GRO recipients truly reflect EPA’s commitment to research that promotes a sustainable and healthy nation.”

The 2013 GRO recipients are eligible to receive a fellowship of up to $50,000 for their studies in natural and life sciences, environmental sciences and interdisciplinary programs, engineering, social sciences, physical and earth sciences, and mathematics and computer sciences. EPA’s GRO program also supplements the students’ education with an EPA internship.
