Dear SCS faculty and students, Here's the call for the Google PhD Fellowships. The process is as follows: - each unit within SCS nominates one (1) student to me - an SCS-level committee will rank-order these seven nominees - a CMU-level committee will choose two (2) from these and other nominees across campus Each unit within SCS runs its own selection process, you will hear from your department head or PhD program coordinator about the process in your unit soon. best, --Anupam ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Google PhD Fellowships Subject: Announcing the 2019 Google PhD Fellowship Program Dear Andrew Moore and Friends at Carnegie Mellon University, We are pleased to invite your institution to participate in the Google US/Canada PhD Fellowship Program for 2019.
