Beus Center for Cosmic Foundations

The Beus Prize Fellowship program seeks to foster and support an inclusive community of early-career scientists who will lead the next great discoveries to better understand our place in the universe.  The Fellowship is offered annually to early-career researchers within four years of earning their Ph.D.  It is up to three years in duration and comes with a competitive salary with anticipated increases each year, an annual discretionary research budget, and an allocation for moving expenses.   The Fellowship is open to observational and theoretical astrophysicists, discipline-based educational researchers, instrument builders, and engineers whose research aims to advance our knowledge of the formation and evolution of stars and galaxies, develop new instruments and techniques to study the cosmos, and/or enhance the societal impacts of this research.
