The Hertz Fellowship is awarded annually to the nation’s most promising graduate students in science and technology that intend to direct their studies toward understanding and solving major near-term problems facing society. The Hertz Foundation awards fellowships to graduate students pursuing a PhD in the applied physical and biological sciences, mathematics, or engineering. It’s up to the applicant to advocate for their specific field of study and demonstrate how it will be applied to address real-world challenges with the greatest impact. Fellows take part in ongoing mentoring, symposia, and workshops. When you become a Hertz Fellow, you join a powerful community of more than 1,200 fellows, spanning disciplines, geography, and generations. 

This award is based on merit (not need) and consists of a cost-of-education allowance and a personal-support stipend.

All eligible applicants must:

  • be enrolled as a first- or second-year PhD student in fall 2027 (when funding would begin);
  • intend to pursue a full-time, in-person PhD in the applied physical and biological sciences, mathematics or engineering at an institution in the United States;
  • intend to direct their studies toward understanding and solving major, near-term problems facing society; and
  • be citizens or permanent residents of the United States.
