USA – STANFORD UNIVERSITY FELLOWSHIP 2011
Shorenstein Fellowships 2011 in Stanford University of USA
About University:
In 1876, former California Governor Leland Stanford purchased 650 acres of Rancho San Francisquito for a country home and began the development of his famous Palo Alto Stock Farm. He later bought adjoining properties totaling more than 8,000 acres. The little town that was beginning to emerge near the land took the name Palo Alto (tall tree) after a giant California redwood on the bank of San Francisquito Creek. The tree itself is still there and would later become the university’s symbol and centerpiece of its official seal.

Post Doctoral Fellowship 2011 IN – IIT
Post Doctoral Fellowship 2011 (PDF) in Indian Institute of Technology in India
About Institute:
The history of the IIT system dates back to 1946 when a committee was set up by Hon’ble Sir Jogendra Singh, Member of the Viceroy’s Executive Council, Department of Education, Health and Agriculture to consider the setting up of Higher Technical Institutions for post war industrial development in India. The 22 member committee headed by Sri N.R.Sarkar, in its report, recommended the establishment of four Higher Technical Institutions in the Eastern, Western, Northern and Southern regions, possibly on the lines of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA, with a number of secondary institutions affiliated to it. The report also urged the speedy establishment of all the four institutions with the ones in the East and the West to be started immediately. The committee also felt that such institutes would not only produce undergraduates but they should be engaged in research, producing research workers and technical teachers as well. The standard of the graduates should be at par with those from first class institutions abroad. They felt that the proportion of undergraduates and postgraduate students should be 2:1.

PhD Research Fellowship 2011 In Sustainability And Energy – Norway
PhD research fellowship 2011 in sustainability and energy use within the fishing fleet in Norway
About NTNU:
The Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) is Norway’s primary institution for educating the nation’s future engineers and scientists. The university also has strong programmes in the social sciences, teacher education, the arts and humanities, medicine, architecture and fine art.
Detail:
Fisheries management aims at achieving sustainability in the Norwegian fisheries. An important aspect of sustainability is energy consumption on board the fishing vessels. Despite the fact that a considerably amount of new technology is and has been introduced into the fishing industry, analyses performed in Norway and internationally show that the specific energy consumption, in terms of energy input pr. unit catch brought to land, is not decreasing. Several studies show a rather opposite trend with increased specific energy use today compared to, for instance, the situation 30 years ago. This is contrary to the trend in most other industrial production processes where technological improvements have resulted in improved energy efficiency.
NTUNU – PhD Research Fellowship 2011
PhD research fellowship 2011 in safety assessments of the fishing fleet in Norwegian university of Science & Technology in Norway
About NTNU:
The Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) is Norway’s primary institution for educating the nation’s future engineers and scientists. The university also has strong programmes in the social sciences, teacher education, the arts and humanities, medicine, architecture and fine art.
Detail:
Fisheries management aims at achieving sustainability in the Norwegian fisheries. An important aspect of sustainability is safe working conditions for the fishers. Even though the safety level in the fishing fleet has improved the last decades, there are still too many accidents, and fishing remains one of the most dangerous working places. Important influencing factors on the safety problems are the working environment, technology development, procedures, training, regulations, and external conditions.
