UVa physics graduate student, Andrew Sutton, was one of only four students in the country who received the prestigious DOE Office of Science Graduate Student Research fellowships to conduct their research at Fermilab.

The program goal is to prepare graduate students for science careers important to the DOE Office of Science mission.  The program provides graduate thesis research opportunities at DOE laboratories.  Andrew will work closely with his advisor, Prof. Craig Group, and post-doctoral researcher Michael Baird along with Fermilab scientists to make important contributions to the NOvA neutrino experiment.   The award includes a generous one-year living stipend and funds for relocation to Fermilab.
