IGERT Traineeships are set by the National Science Foundation. Through a combination of NSF funds and MIT contributions, students receive full tuition as well as a generous stipend. The stipend, $30,000/year in 2005-2006, is higher than the standard MIT PhD stipend paid by departments or research grants.
