Vision for the future

Readying people for world challenges

Tackling climate change is a defining challenge of the 21st century. The transition to a low-carbon energy system will solve about three-fourths of the climate problem. At the same time, the new energy system needs to be affordable, reliable, and available to all people. The goal of the Stanford Energy Postdoctoral Fellowship is to bring together the brightest minds in energy from around the world to develop knowledge necessary to realize that vision. 

We look for the brightest minds in the natural sciences, engineering, materials science, policy, economics, and business who are interested in tackling the global energy problem through interdisciplinary approaches. Our fellows have a collaborative spirit with a distinct intellectual curiosity and desire to make a lasting difference in the world.
