Program Overview
The NECSI Fellows Program provides an opportunity for postdoctoral and graduate students to join in complex systems research activities and publications, working directly with NECSI researchers. NECSI Fellows remain in residence at their home institutions and receive financial support for travel to NECSI to participate in special programs and research. Collaborations continue year round.
NECSI Postdoc and Student Fellows participate in:
- educational programs at NECSI in selected areas of advanced studies of the approach and methods of complex systems science;
- research activities and publications of NECSI through collaboration and mentoring by NECSI faculty and postdocs; and
- special programs for NECSI Fellows.
Fellows are appointed for a three- to five-year term.
