Dear Dr. Keleman, 

 

It is with great pleasure that I extend a personal invitation requesting
your nomination of two students graduating this spring from your program who
have demonstrated academic excellence for a full scholarship plus stipend to
pursue a Master's degree.  The NSF has provided the University of Pittsburgh
School of Information Sciences (SIS) with funds to support students seeking
a Master's Degree in Information Science or Telecommunications with a
concentration in Information Assurance and Security under the Federal Cyber
Service Scholarship for Service (SFS) Program.  A nomination form as well as
a flyer with details of the Program is attached for your convenience.  You
will also be receiving a packet of information in the mail within the next
week or so.

 

Our goal is to collaborate with a select group of institutions that we
believe will provide strong candidates for our program.  As most students
are now beginning to make plans relative to the pursuit of a graduate degree
and to maximize the opportunity to reach as many of the top students in the
related fields, I ask that you begin thinking about nominees today and
return the attached nomination form within one week to joannk@sis.pitt.edu
by e-mail, or by US postal mail to the address below. We will then follow-up
with your students to supply them with information on the Program and to
obtain the necessary application.  More information can be found on our
website - http://www.sis.pitt.edu/~lersais/. 

 

Thank you for your time and attention to this request.  If you have any
questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.  I look forward to hearing
from you.

 

Sincerely,

 

James Joshi, PhD
