The Arts & Humanities Division provides limited funding for students who plan to travel to conduct dissertation research. A student may only receive a Dissertation Research Travel Grant once in their graduate career and the grants are not renewable.
Funding from these grants is extremely limited. Students may receive up to $5,000. Students should first apply for travel grants from departments and centers (e.g., UChicago Global Travel Grant, Nicholson, France Chicago, CEAS, CAEA, COSAS) before requesting these funds.
Applicants will be awarded funds based on their specific travel and financial needs, the quality and feasibility of their projects, in addition to other academic qualifications.
Eligibility
Only Ph.D. candidates in the Arts & Humanities Division are eligible.
