The Fellowship Committee reviews University Fellowship, Diversity Fellowship, and Queener Award applications as well as Block Grant applications.
The committee is chaired by a member of the Graduate Affairs Committee and consists of 13 other graduate faculty appointed by the associate dean.
University Fellowship nominations are due in February. These prestigious awards are open to incoming students entering research-based programs who are nominated by their faculty. The Queener Award is given annually to an outstanding master’s and doctoral student. Block Grants are awarded to schools to support graduate students in their research-based programs. These proposals are reviewed in December.
