The Society of Energy Fellows at MIT


The Society of Energy Fellows at MIT mobilizes outstanding graduate students to help address the world's energy challenges.  Named MIT Energy Fellows at the master's and doctoral levels are selected on the basis of keen interest in energy, excellent academic record, and promising future.  As Energy Fellows, students receive funding for one academic year and have many opportunities to meet and interact with their industry sponsors. They also become members of the Society of Energy Fellows at MIT, an organization within the MIT Energy Initiative established to foster a network of students dedicated to meeting the world's future energy needs.

Energy Fellows, who are supported by MITEI members, reside in all five schools at MIT. Individually, they participate in energy research; collectively, they form the Society of Energy Fellows at MIT, a long-term community of students and alumni. Meet our current Energy Fellows below.
