What is the Departments policy on the summer employment?
The fellowships offered by the Department are full-time and paid year round. Therefore, no summer employment is allowed while the student is receiving a stipend. This is not meant to preclude cases where students are temporarily placed in industries relevant to their thesis work and are paid by a company. In these cases the student is allowed to collect the normal stipend plus an allowance for extra expenses, e. g. due to relocation or maintenance of a second dwelling place.
