Opportunity Summary:

The FY 2013 National Network for Environmental Management Studies (NNEMS) Fellowship Program is a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) fellowship opportunity designed to help students build practical experience in environmental work while strengthening their career readiness. Established in 1986, the program was created in response to growing interest in environmental issues and is intended to encourage students to pursue environmental careers through hands-on, project-based learning inside the EPA. The core idea is straightforward: selected students work on a defined fellowship project that closely aligns with their academic field of study, gaining real exposure to how environmental research and policy work are carried out in a federal agency setting.

The fellowship emphasizes focused projects that are intentionally narrow in scope, which helps ensure the work can be completed within a realistic timeframe. Fellows typically conduct their research while working at the EPA either full time during the summer or part time during the academic year. While projects are generally performed at an EPA office, the announcement notes that alternative arrangements may be possible in certain circumstances. Alongside the project itself, the program is framed as a broader professional development experience, offering activities that deepen a student s understanding of environmental challenges and build transferable skills relevant to environmental management and related careers.

From a funding and awards standpoint, this is a discretionary opportunity administered by the EPA under CFDA 66.952 (National Network for Environmental Management Studies Fellowship Program). The funding opportunity number is EPA EED 13 01, and the activity category is Environment. The EPA anticipated making about 5 awards under this announcement, with an estimated total funding amount of 50,000. Each award is set at a fixed level: a 10,000 award ceiling and a 10,000 award floor, indicating each fellowship award is expected to be 10,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not expected to contribute additional funds to participate.

Eligibility is limited to individuals, with additional eligibility criteria referenced in Section III of the full announcement. Applicants are directed to consult the official announcement for specific requirements and for instructions on how and where to submit application materials. Key dates include a posted date of December 17, 2012, and an application closing date of February 8, 2013. The opportunity was archived on March 10, 2013. For applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement, the EPA provided a contact person: Ginger Potter at 202 564 0443.
