Interdisciplinary Doctoral Fellowships

The Graduate School awards a limited number of one-year Interdisciplinary Doctoral Fellowships (IDFs) each year to outstanding graduate students who would benefit from interaction with faculty at one of the University's interdisciplinary research centers or institutes. See here for contact information for each hosting center. To learn more about the IDF visit the Graduate School's IDF website and watch a recording of an IDF Info Session held by the Institute for Advanced Study.
