Workshops and Other Events

The Graduate Fellowships and External Funding Office offer workshops and events to help graduate students prepare for funding opportunities.

Workshops may cover topics such as:

  • Finding fellowships and scholarships 
  • Understanding eligibility and deadlines 
  • Planning an application timeline 
  • Writing proposals and personal statements 
  • Working with faculty mentors 
  • Preparing competitive application materials 
Graduate students collaborating with a faculty mentor in a research environment, representing scholarship-supported academic achievement and innovation.

Prepare to Apply Early 

Strong fellowship applications take time. Starting early allows you to explore opportunities, develop your ideas, seek feedback, and revise your application way before the deadline. 

Our workshops and consultations are designed to help students from all disciplines build these skills throughout graduate school.
