Competitive Fellowships

Collectively, the Honorific fellowships (Harold W. Dodds Fellowships, Porter Ogden Jacobus Fellowship, Charlotte Elizabeth Procter Fellowships and Wallace Memorial Fellowships in Engineering) provide funding to students displaying the highest scholarly excellence in graduate work during the year.

Established in 1973, the Mrs. Giles Whiting Foundation Honorific Fellowships in the Humanities are awarded to the very best scholars among all the humanities departments in recognition of outstanding performance and professional promise.

The Fellowship of Woodrow Wilson Scholars was initiated in 1994, bringing together graduate students and faculty in the fields of greatest concern to President Wilson (mostly the social sciences and history). Today, approximately 15 faculty members and 24 graduate students meet monthly to examine multi- and interdisciplinary perspectives in relation to important issues of international and domestic public policy.
