I got the following request for nominations from Leighton Symons at Two Sigma:
Two Sigma are proud to announce the continuation of the Two Sigma PhD Fellowship program, which supports doctoral students pursuing a PhD in a STEM field such as Statistics, Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics and Finance/Econometrics. At Two Sigma we understand that diversity drives innovation, and we actively seek to promote the visibility and inclusion of women, LGBTQ people, and those from ethnic and racial backgrounds that remain under-represented in technology. Therefore, we are also extremely pleased to announce the launch of our Inaugural Two Sigma Diversity PhD Fellowship.
If you’d like to be nominated for either of these, please let me, Teresa, or the new ACGS Sergey Fomin know. The department can nominate three PhD students for each of the aforementioned Fellowship program.
