For students in any UO PhD program, this fellowship is awarded to the most outstanding doctoral student as determined by a faculty selection committee. Dissertations to be considered can be on any topic and are judged on the quality of the written proposal and the potential impact of the research both inside and beyond the student’s field. This fellowship carries an award stipend of $18,000 for three terms or $12,000 for two terms and a University tuition waiver. Health insurance will be provided by the UO Health Plan and paid for by the Graduate School. Recipients must register for at least 3 dissertation credits during each term of the fellowship. The stipend payments may be spread over 6, 9, or 12 months; the tuition remission will commence in fall term.
