Students admitted to the PhD Program are usually awarded fellowships that include a full tuition waiver, health insurance, and a stipend covering living expenses. During the 2008-2009 academic year, the tuition waiver and health insurance waiver will be worth approximately $37,900, and the amount of the stipend will be $20,000 for a 12-month period. Owen fellowships carry an expectation that the student will devote 12 hours per week serving as a research assistant or engaging in research collaboration with faculty.
For outstanding candidates, the Graduate School of Vanderbilt University awards a limited number of fellowships that add $6,000 to $10,000 to the amount of the Owen School Fellowship award. Fellowship awards are typically renewable for four years, as long as the student remains in good standing and continues to make progress toward completion of the degree. BACK TO TOP For More Info .
