GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE MAI PROGRAM: Introduction
The EPA invites pre-applications for graduate fellowships in academic disciplines relating to
environmental research including physical, biological, and social sciences and engineering. A
pre-application provides the information needed for the review of its merit. Top ranked applicants
following the merit review will be required to submit a brief formal application.
These fellowships are intended to help defray costs associated with advanced environmentally-oriented
study leading to the masters or doctoral degree. Instructions for completing and submitting
pre-applications are found in the sections that follow. Instructions must be followed exactly or the
submission will not be reviewed.
Purpose of the Program
The purpose of the fellowship program is to encourage promising students to obtain advanced degrees
and pursue careers in environmentally related fields. This goal is consistent with the mission of EPA,
which is to provide leadership in the nation’s environmental science, research, education, assessment,
restoration, and preservation efforts. This program will benefit both the public and private sectors which
will need a steady stream of well-trained environmental specialists if our society is to meet the
environmental challenges of the future.
Eligibility
Applicants must be citizens of the United States or its territories or possessions, or be lawfully admitted
to the United States for permanent residence. Resident aliens must include their green card number in
their pre-application. EPA may choose to verify this number with the Immigration and Naturalization
Service.
Students do not need to be enrolled in or formally accepted in a full-time graduate program at the time
they apply for a fellowship, but proof of enrollment or acceptance must be produced prior to the award of
the fellowship. Students must attend a fully accredited four-year U.S. Minority Academic
Institution.
Minority Academic Institutions are defined as Historically Black Colleges or
Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic Serving institutions (HS1s), and Tribal Colleges
(TC5). See listings at end of this announcement.
Students must be pursuing a master’s or doctoral degree in an environmentally related field of
specialization (see fields of specialization below).
Students who have completed more than one year in the masters program or four years in the doctoral
program are not eligible. Students enrolled in a master’s program, however, may apply for a doctoral
fellowship.
Employees of the U.S. government must be able to prove separation from Federal
service before accepting th1 fellowship.
Acceptance of this fellowship does not necessarily preclude acceptance of other scholarship, fellowship,
traineeship, or grant aid. However, this fellowship may not be awarded to anyone who will
simultaneously be receiving other federal assistance.

-------
DESCRIPTION OF A MAI FELLOWSHIP
Tenure
The term of a graduate fellowship is negotiated with students and customarily covers a period of 9 to 12
months for each fellowship year. Students seeking a master’s degree may be supported for a maximum
of two years. Students seeking doctoral degrees may receive support for a maximum of three years.
Stipend and Allowances
The fellowship provides up to $34,000 per year of support. A maximum of $68,000 will be provided for
master’s fellows (two years) and up to $102,000 (three years) will be provided to doctoral students. The
$34,000 annual support covers stipend, tuition, and expenses as follows:
1. Stipends: For the 2002-2003 academic year these will be $17,000 for 12-month tenures and
prorated monthly at a maximum of $1,417 for shorter periods. Funds for unused months are
forfeited. Stipends are paid directly to the Fellow. At its discretion, each fellowship institution
may supplement a Fellow’s stipend from
institutional funds in accordance with the supplementation policy of the institution.
2. Tuition and Academic Fees: Up to $12,000 per year will be paid directly to the institution. For
the purposes of this fellowship, health insurance is not considered to be an academic fee.
Health insurance costs may, however, be paid from the expense budget.
3. Expense Allowance: Up to $5,000 will be provided to pay for items and activities for the direct
benefit of the student’s education, such as for health insurance, books, supplies, equipment,
travel to technical and scientific meetings, and domestic and international travel required to
conduct the proposed research. Specific instructions regarding the disbursement and
management of the expense allowance will be provided during the award process.
Annual Fellowships Conference
Fellows are expected to attend an annual EPA MAI Graduate Fellows Conference as long as they are in
the program, unless the immediate needs of their research project make attendance impractical.
Resources to support this travel are to be taken from the expense allowance.
International Activities
The fellow’s proposed research may be conducted outside the United States. However, EPA allows only
$5,000 for all expenses, including travel. See “Stipends and Allowances” for details. If at any time
during the research project, it becomes necessary for you to work outside the United States and its
temtones, you must notify your Project Officer who will obtain the necessary EPA and State Department
approval before you can use fellowship funds to conduct these activities. In addition, for travel to
international meetings, approval must be obtained from the EPA project officer.
THE MAI FELLOWSHIP APPLICATION PACKAGE
The application package for a MAI Fellowship consists of three major parts: 1) the pre-application, 2)
three letters of recommendation, and 3) a self-addressed, stamped postcard. The pre-application
provides the reviewers with information about you and your proposed research, the letters provide
support for your pre-application, and the postcard allows us to keep you informed about the status of
your pre-application. This section provides information you will need to complete each part of the
application package.

SAMPLE PRE-APPLICATION
The pages that follow constitute a sample pre-application for graduate fellowships.
NOTE!!!! Smart as he is, this hypothetical student probably would NOT receive an EPA fellowship
because his cumculum has no obvious relationship to environmental concerns or the disciplinary degree
he is seeking. His only chance would be if his narrative statement clearly made that connection. The
purpose of this samp’e is to demonstrate format, not content.
