Fellowships are not easy to get...sounds like a great option for the chosen few to get familiar with the field and reenter the workforce after years in ivory-tower academics or labs. Plus, the advantage to potential employers is obvious: hire a postdoc with more practical experience in the field. Win-win!

I fail to see the advantage of this. The main advantages of engineering phds over science ones are shorter phds and no post doc. Why throw this away? Take the higher pay, higher stability option.
