The South Carolina Universities Research and Education Foundation
(SCUREF) is now accepting applications for the Nuclear Forensics
Undergraduate Scholarship Program (NFUSP) 2015 Award Cycle.
Sponsored by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Domestic Nuclear
Detection Office, the NFUSP provides scholarships to qualified
undergraduate students pursuing degrees in disciplines relevant to
technical nuclear forensics including physics, chemistry, nuclear
engineering, and material science. Scholars gain hands-on experience
through summer research opportunities at the Department of Energy
national laboratories, including close interaction with technical
experts throughout the national nuclear forensics community. The NFUSP
aims to build a viable student career path in nuclear forensics in order
to cultivate the next generation of highly qualified scientists in this
critically important field.
