OVERVIEW
The UC National Laboratory Fees Research Program (LFRP) sponsors innovative research, fosters new collaborations between UC faculty and national laboratory scientists, and provides unique training opportunities for UC graduate students and postdoctoral fellows.
UC Multicampus-National Lab Collaborative Research And Training Awards
The UC Multicampus-National Lab Collaborative Research and Training Award advances genuine engagement among faculty, laboratory scientists and students from multiple disciplines across UC campuses and Lawrence Livermore, Los Alamos and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratories. Research partnerships support cutting edge and collaborative approaches that generate new knowledge and take advantage of the unique capacities and facilities available through the collaborating institutions; provide meaningful training and research engagement for UC students, and post-doctoral scholars; and enhance UC’s system-wide competitiveness for extramural support in research areas of strategic importance to UC and the national labs.
UC National Lab In-Residence Graduate Fellowships
The University of California, Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) have a close, long-standing and strategically important collaborative relationship that offers graduate students unique research, training, and career development opportunities. The UC National Laboratory Fees Research Program is leveraging that relationship by offering a competitive Fellowship award that provides up to three years of support for Ph.D. candidates who wish to conduct thesis research on-site at LANL or LLNL.
