APPLICATION DEADLINE:
FEBRUARY 9, 2015 at 12 noon (PST)
For 2015-16 the Graduate School will
award Chester Fritz and Boeing International one-quarter fellowships to
support international study or research abroad
by UW graduate students. These grants are available to fund research
and/or study periods of three months, corresponding to regular UW
quarter dates. During
the quarter of their award, fellows are required
to register for study abroad through the Office of International
Programs and Exchanges. The IPE fee is covered by the fellowship.
Graduate students in fee-based programs are not eligible to apply.
No extra money is included for airfare.
These fellowships are available
to fund research and/or study periods of one quarter (three full
months) abroad during the 2015-16 year (autumn 2015 through summer
2016). These awards DO NOT support faculty-led UW study
abroad programs.
In allocating these awards, priority will be given to applications that address the following:
·
Clear statement of the research and/or study that will be done on the fellowship;
·
evidence of the relationship between the proposed study/research and the applicant's academic program;
·
evidence
of the necessity to go overseas to conduct the study/research and the
relevance of the university or locale to the planned research (including
evidence of affiliation, if required
or appropriate, to carry out the proposed project); and
·
evidence of appropriate language competence.
Students who have already received a
Graduate School Pembroke Award, a Graduate School Fritz or Boeing
Fellowship, or Western Europe Travel Grant are ineligible to receive
this fellowship.
