Workshop for Students and their Advisors on Ford Foundation Diversity Predoctoral and Dissertation Fellowships
Workshop offered by the Office of Graduate Studies, Office of VP and Associate Provost for Diversity, and the Office of Proposal Development on Ford Foundation Diversity Fellowships and how to compete for them. The workshop is for current graduate students who plan to pursue a PhD and their faculty advisors, and for senior undergraduates who plan to attend graduate school and pursue a PhD. Preparing a competitive Ford Fellowship application requires a joint effort of the student and his/her advisor. Faculty graduate advisors are therefore encouraged to attend with their students.
