Emma Nicoson, a 2nd year doctoral student, is selected as American-Scandinavian Foundation Fellow (https://www.amscan.org/fellowships-and-grants/) next year. She will spend a year in Norway (University of Oslo) under the supervision of Dr. Tone Bratteteig - Department of Informatics, a professor in design of information systems. She will conduct part of her dissertation research there. The Foundation will fund her fellowship, travel and more (In fact, their amount is more than the Fulbright Fellowship)!

“The ASF Fellowships and Grants program, established in 1912, currently awards nearly $700,000 annually in support to some 60 individual students, scholars, professionals and artists from the U.S. or Scandinavia for research, study or creative projects abroad. Fields of study include medicine, law, design, art and architecture, history, language and literature, archaeology, philosophy, mathematics, and chemistry and the grants are supported by 40 funds held by ASF and earmarked for these purposes. Former ASF Fellows have gone on to become Nobel Laureates, diplomats, judges, professors, directors of international organizations, and leaders in many fields.”
