Predoctoral Fellowship in Gender, Sexuality and Health
The Department of Sociomedical Sciences at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health will offer at least one and possibly two Predoctoral Fellowships in Gender, Sexuality and Health to PhD applicants entering in the fall of 2014.
This fellowship is funded by a training grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Development, Demographic and Behavioral Sciences Branch. Fellowships cover tuition and stipend and include monies for professional meeting travel and academic supplies. Funding is guaranteed up to five years (although students will be encouraged to seek outside funding for their dissertation research).
Eligibility
Applicants must apply to and be accepted by the Department of Sociomedical Sciences before a training fellowship can be offered.
How to Apply
To apply for the fellowship, applicants must note their interest in gender and sexuality and briefly outline a prospective area of research for their doctoral dissertation in their Statement of Academic Purpose.
