The Energy Secretary may award fellowships for specified graduate study and research in fuels and energy. The section sets the number, duration, eligible programs and institutions, and replacement-award rule.
(a) Graduate study and research. The Energy Secretary may award up to 1,000 fellowships for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1979, and each of the next five fiscal years. The fellowships support graduate study and research in applied science and engineering related to producing, conserving, or using fuels and energy. They go to students in master’s-degree programs and may be used at any higher-education institution, library, archive, or other research center approved by the Energy Secretary after consulting the Education Secretary. (b) Term. A fellowship lasts for the period the Energy Secretary sets, but no more than two years. (c) Replacement awards. In addition to the number authorized in subsection (a), the Energy Secretary may award fellowships equal to those previously awarded under this subchapter that became vacant before their original period ended. Each replacement lasts only for the remaining part of the original fellowship period, as the Secretary determines.
The Secretary of Energy is authorized to award under the provisions of this subchapter not to exceed one thousand fellowships for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1979, and each of the five succeeding fiscal years. Fellowships shall be awarded under the provisions of this subchapter for graduate study and research in those areas of applied science and engineering that are related to the production, conservation, and utilization of fuels and energy. Fellowships shall be awarded to students in programs leading to master’s degrees. Such fellowships may be awarded for graduate study and research at any institution of higher education, library, archive, or any other research center approved by the Secretary of Energy after consultation with the Secretary of Education.
Such fellowships shall be awarded for such periods as the Secretary of Energy may determine, but not to exceed two years.
In addition to the number of fellowships authorized to be awarded by subsection (a) of this section, the Secretary of Energy is authorized to award fellowships equal to the number previously awarded during any fiscal year under this subchapter but vacated prior to the end of the period for which they were awarded; except that each fellowship awarded under this subsection shall be for such period of graduate work or research, not in excess of the remainder of the period for which the fellowship which it replaces was awarded as the Secretary of Energy may determine.
