The program provides up to three years of support, including an annual $34,000 stipend, for the graduate education of individuals who have demonstrated their potential for significant achievements in science and engineering research. <!--more--> In the years 2013 through 2015, GRFP awards in the mathematical sciences were given to students who earned baccalaureate degrees from the 99 institutions listed below.<\/p>\n<p>The GRFP awards approximately 2,000 new fellowships each year.  However, participation by the mathematical sciences community has been relatively low, and fewer than 4% of the fellowships currently go to students doing research in areas supported by the NSF Division of Mathematical Sciences (DMS.)<\/p>\n<p>This is a great opportunity for the mathematical sciences community. US citizens and permanent residents who are planning to enter graduate school in an NSF-supported discipline next fall, or in the first two years of such a graduate program, or who are returning to graduate school after being out for two or more years, are eligible. Applications for Mathematical Sciences topics are due October 30.
