The IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society is offering a predoctoral fellowship in solid-state circuits for the academic year 1999-2000. The fellowship includes a stipend of $15,000, tuition and fees up to a maximum of $8,000, and a grant of $2,000 to the department in which the recipient is registered.

Applicants must have completed at least one year of graduate study, be in a Ph.D. program in the area of solid-state circuits, and be a member of IEEE. The award will be made on the basis of academic record and promise, graduate study program, and need.

An application should include these items:

• A Short (one-page) Biography - Please include your IEEE membership number.
• Academic Records - Copy of all relevant undergraduate and graduate transcripts.

Please include a list of any publications authored or co-authored. A copy of each publication is desirable. Please explain the work to be completed in the remainder of your graduate study program, why you think it is important, and what is novel about your approach. Finally, indicate how important it is for you to receive this support.
• Letters of Recommendation - At least two letters of recommendation are required; one should be from the principle advisor. These letters should address academic record, accomplishments and promise, graduate study research program, and need.

The deadline for submission is May 15, 1999, and the results will be announced by July 15, 1999.
