Intel Announces the 2012 Doctoral Student Honor Awardees
The Intel Doctoral Student Honor Programme awards fellowships to exceptional PhD candidates pursuing leading-edge innovation in fields related to Intel's business and research interests in the European Union, Switzerland, and Russia. The goal of the programme is to advance innovation in key areas of technology, as well as develop a pipeline of world-class technical talent for Intel's future workforce and the global knowledge-based economy. The selection of this year’s recipients was a highly competitive process with many outstanding quality applicants across several universities and exciting areas of research. For the 2012-2013 academic cycle, twenty-five finalists were selected from a pool of sixty-six applicants across sixteen universities. Congratulations to all of this year’s awardees!
