Research Fellowships

Research abroad is a great way to explore another part of the world while gaining important academic experience. The Dickey Center offers funding for a limited number of fellowships in the areas of health, the environment and human development.

Undergraduate, graduate, and joint-degree students are eligible for various research opportunities in select locations. Chiquita Palha de Sousa '13 worked at a clinic in Haiti.

Stefansson Fellowships support student participation on faculty research in Arctic and high-latitude locations. Sam Streeter '13 worked with Professor Erich Osterberg in Denali National Park.

Stefansson Fellowships also support student-designed research projects. Anna Gleizer '14 circumnavigated Russia's Lake Baikal and collected water samples to analyze the effects of climate change.
