[ChBE-Grad] University of Washington: Distinguished Young Scholars Seminar accepting applications

Tue Apr 19 13:14:26 CDT 2022

FYI. This is an annual program for graduating doctoral students and postdocs with an interest to pursue an academic career.

Eligibility
"We welcome applications from students who are near completion of their doctorate (must be graduating by June 2023), and postdoctoral scholars, who have not yet accepted their first permanent positions. Eight scholars will be chosen by a committee of UW Chemical Engineering and Molecular Engineering and Sciences graduate students."

Perks
All-expenses-paid (from US and Canada) trip to the University of Washington in Seattle to present a one-hour seminar on your research and meet with UW professors and graduate students. The top seminar speaker chosen by the graduate students at UW will also receive a $500 cash prize. As of 2019, only speakers coming from other universities will be allowed to win this prize.

Dear colleagues,

The University of Washington Department of Chemical Engineering invites your top students and postdocs to apply for our 12th annual Distinguished Young Scholars Seminar <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https*3A*2F*2Fdepts.washington.edu*2Fdyss*2F&data=05*7C01*7Cche-dept-chairs*40lsv.uky.edu*7C47ece082f89140e3fcf908da222cc412*7C2b30530b69b64457b818481cb53d42ae*7C0*7C0*7C637859872903726371*7CUnknown*7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0*3D*7C3000*7C*7C*7C&sdata=wR9ak7oWxdIE1FL6hFGxGcrJGGcf5SoR4jOnVwI3IyE*3D&reserved=0__;JSUlJSUlJSUlJSUlJSUlJSUlJSUl!!LkSTlj0I!FMXJfYVqTtJ0Pi4QU0iLlIBkPWJ6495Pfn8w3EuM1fbUCnIOg4BhvEJXk7PTFB0M895rNztwCc6D3nWtziaa5us$> series. This summer program provides early-career chemical engineers the opportunity to present an hour-long research seminar and gain critical interviewing skills. We view it as a service to the profession and an opportunity for our graduate students and postdocs to see the best of the best in their peer group. We are excited to host DYSS speakers in person this year.

We ask you to identify qualified candidates in your department and encourage them to apply. We are particularly interested in applicants representing diverse personal and professional backgrounds. There is no limit to the number of applications from any particular department.

The application deadline is May 22, 2022. Please let potential applicants know this is a great professional development opportunity that provides a leg up for the autumn job search. The top speaker of the series (as judged by UW chemical engineering and molecular engineering and sciences grad students) will receive a $500 prize.
