Moira Burke, a PhD student in the Human-Computer Interaction Institute, is the recipient of a Google U.S./Canada Fellowship in Human Computer Interaction and is one of just 31 students worldwide recognized by the Google Fellowship program this year.

"These students have been exemplary thus far in their careers and we're looking forward to seeing them build upon their already impressive accomplishments," Alfred Spector, Google vice president of research and special initiatives, said in announcing the fellowships on the Official Google Blog.


Each fellowship includes full coverage of tuition, fees and a stipend for up to three years. This is the second year of the fellowship program.
