The Graduate School's spring deadline for thesis research grants is
March 1, 2011 at noon. The competition is open to doctoral students
who have passed the oral preliminary examination by the application
deadline. Grants of up to $2,500 are available to support thesis
research, such as domestic travel and expenses for fieldwork, postage,
and photocopying. Grants of up to $5,000 are available to conduct
thesis research abroad for six weeks to six months. (Grant requests
for shorter trips may be considered, by exception, if well justified).
Applications do not need to be approved by the department (although we
would appreciate a copy of the application) but do require two letters
of recommendation.
