Fulbright-Hays
Doctoral Dissertation Research Abroad Program (DDRA)
Application materials available now!
The Fulbright-Hays Doctoral Dissertation Research
Abroad Program (DDRA) funds individual dissertation-level doctoral students
to conduct research in modern foreign languages
and area studies for periods of six to twelve months.
This program is sponsored by the U. S. Department of
Education (ED) and is not related
to the IIE Fulbright program, which is run by the State
Department. The Fulbright-Hays DDRA Program is for
students who intend to conduct dissertation research outside
of the United States, excluding the countries of Western
Europe, and is of particular interest to (but
not limited to) students in the social sciences.
The official announcement of the Fulbright-Hays
competition is usually made in September on the ED website: http://www.ed.gov/programs/iegpsddrap/applicant.html.
Please
note that because Fulbright-Hays awards are granted
to students through their educational institutions, all
applications must be vetted by the Graduate Center’s
Office of Student Affairs prior to being submitted
electronically to the Department of Education. To
allow for proper review and vetting of applications
prior to the transmittal deadline of December 1, the
Graduate Center’s internal deadline will be Tuesday, November 3, 2009.
If you are interested in beginning the application
process, kindly contact institutional application liaison Fiona Lee in the Office of the Vice President
for Student Affairs at flee@gc.cuny.edu or 212-817-7403.
Please do not contact U. S. Department
of Education personnel directly. |
