Elizabeth Munsterberg Koppitz Child Psychology Graduate Fellowships

Each Year APF awards up to five Koppitz Graduate Student Fellowships to promote the advancement of knowledge and learning in the field of child psychology. Several runner-up applicants receive travel stipends to attend the APA Convention and other conferences in child psychology.

Dr. Werner Koppitz made a bequest of more than $4 million to APF to honor his late wife, Elizabeth Munsterberg Koppitz, Ph.D., a school and educational psychologist, who died of leukemia in 1983.

Amount: Up to five fellowships of up to $28,000 for graduate work and professional development; ten $4,000 travel stipends for runners-up.

Eligibility: To qualify for the fellowship, applicants must have achieved doctoral candidacy. Students can apply before having passed their qualifying exams, but proof of having advanced to doctoral candidacy will be required before funds are released.
