Full Analysis
This contract is a $16.7 million cooperative agreement from the Department of Energy to The Krell Institute Inc. to administer the 2025 Computational Science Graduate Fellowship Program. The program funds graduate students in computational science, which is critical for research in areas like energy modeling, climate simulation, and nuclear security. The Krell Institute is a private nonprofit organization with no publicly traded parent or subsidiary, so this contract does not map to any public company stock. The Department of Energy is the sole obligating party, and the contract runs from September 2025 to September 2027. Legislative connections are minimal; though several energy and technology bills are in the database, none directly authorize this specific fellowship. The broader sector impact is neutral-to-positive as the program helps build the future workforce for computational science, which benefits both the technology and energy sectors over the long term. No publicly traded companies are directly involved, so no supply chain or competitor inferences are warranted.
