Two Sigma PhD & Diversity PhD Fellowships

Two Sigma PhD Fellowship: The Two Sigma PhD Fellowship supports doctoral students pursuing a PhD in a STEM field such as Statistics, Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics and Finance/Econometrics at an accredited university in the United States. Applications are assessed based on the student’s research proposal, publications and recommendation letters. Topics of interest include: machine learning & artificial intelligence, deep learning, reinforcement learning, natural language processing, computer vision, robotics, computational biology

*Please note: for the internal application, you will only be asked to submit one letter of reference (from your advisor). If selected as one of the CS candidates, you will be asked to provide the name and contact information for a second reference (a professor/faculty member familiar with your work); this reference will be asked to submit a letter directly to Two Sigma on November 4. *

Two Sigma Diversity PhD Fellowship: 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. One way we foster greater inclusivity is through the Two Sigma Diversity PhD Fellowship, which supports doctoral students in STEM fields such as Statistics, Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics and Finance/Econometrics at accredited universities in the United States. We assess applications based on students’ research proposals, publications, and recommendation letters. Topics of interest include: machine learning & artificial intelligence, deep learning, reinforcement learning, natural language processing, computer vision, robotics, computational biology
