Ford Foundation Dissertation Fellowships

Description

Dissertation Fellowships provide one year of support for individuals working to complete a research-based, dissertation-required Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) or Doctor of Science (Sc.D.) degree that will prepare them for the pursuit of a career in academic teaching or research. Practice-oriented degree programs are not eligible for support. The fellowship is intended to support the final year of writing and defense of the dissertation. Applicants must expect to complete the Ph.D. or Sc.D. degree in a period of 9-12 months during the 2024-2025 academic year. Applicants will be able to upload transcripts and the verification form only after they have submitted the main portion of their online application. Applicants must provide the names and contact information of a minimum of three, maximum of five, individuals who will write a letter of recommendation for them. The application deadline is December 12, 2023, while the deadline for the submission of the supplementary materials is January 9, 2024. Please visit the fellowship's website for more information.
