The IBM Ph.D. Fellowship program honors exceptional Ph.D. students in many academic disciplines and areas of study, for example: computer science and engineering (including cyber security and cloud computing), electrical and mechanical engineering, physical sciences (including chemistry, material sciences, and physics), mathematical sciences (including

analytics of massive scale data with uncertainty, operations research, and optimization), public sector and business sciences (including urban policy and analytics, social technologies, learning systems and cognitive computing), and service science, management, and engineering (SSME). Additionally, IBM pays special attention to an array of focus areas of interest to IBM

and fundamental to innovation, including but not limited to:

• Technology that creates new business or social value

Tools to build smarter cities and a smarter planet, modeling and data analysis, optimization, risk and compliance, cyber

security, urban policy and analytics, tools for globalization, information-based medicine and health care management,service science, management and engineering (SSME)

• Innovative software

HCI, massive scale data and analytics with uncertainty, new expressive ways of manipulating computers, programming models and tools, cognitive computing, learning systems, social and mobile computing, Internet of things.

• New types of computers

Use of massive parallelism for non-scientific/engineering applications, multi-core and hybrid systems, green computing,nanotechnology

• Interdisciplinary projects that create social and business value

Smart cities, water and energy modeling and management, cloud computing

The IBM Ph.D. Fellowship program also supports our long-standing commitment to workforce diversity. IBM values diversity in the workplace and encourages nominations of women, minorities and all who contribute to that diversity.

Please feel free to post this program announcement in your department area. This announcement will also be posted on the Internet at //www.ibm.com/university/phdfellowship

on September 19, 2013 and will be linked to the Internet nomination form. Award recipients will be finalized mid February, 2014 followed by emails to all participants. All supporting documents for the fellowship, such as student's resume, and endorsement by the department head as well as the nominator's recommendation must be included in the nomination form. We ask that each department submit no more than two new nominations (in addition to any existing fellowship nominations to compete for a renewal). In cases of more than one

nomination for a fellowship (including competing renewal nominations), the department head's endorsement must include an indication of the relative merits of all the candidates and the department's prioritization of these candidates. Students from Europe and Russia may be nominated in their first year of study in their doctoral program. Outside of Europe and Russia

students must be enrolled full-time in a college or university Ph.D. program, and they must have completed at least one year of study in their doctoral program at the time of their nomination. Students from U.S. embargoed countries are not eligible for the program.

IBM University Relations Ph.D. Fellowships are awarded worldwide. IBM Ph.D. Fellows receive a stipend for the academic year 2014-2015. Fellowships vary by country/geographic area and the students will be informed at the time of the award what the value is for their country/geographic area. All IBM Ph.D. Fellows are matched with an IBM Mentor according to their technical interests, and they are strongly encouraged to participate in at least one internship at IBM while completing their studies. While students may accept other supplemental fellowships, to be eligible for the IBM Ph.D. Fellowship they may not

accept a major award in addition to the IBM Ph.D. Fellowship. Students in Europe and Russia may accept government scholarships and remain eligible for the IBM Ph.D. Fellowship.

We look forward to receiving your department's nominations.
