Fellowships at Brown

In addition to the fellowships offered by the Swearer Center, Brown offers many fellowships that fund summer research, internships, graduate study, and international and national travel and study. The Fellowships @ Brown website offers comprehensive information about research and fellowship opportunities funded or sponsored by Brown. It also offers information about selected external awards that may be of interest to Brown students. 

Application to Multiple Fellowships

Applicants may apply to multiple fellowship programs for the same project - however, they may only accept funding from one Brown University source for the same scope of work.  If an applicant is awarded multiple university fellowships, (e.g. UTRA, Royce, Smoke, etc.), he or she must choose which award to accept. 

International Travel

If a fellowship proposal requires international travel the applicant must agree to abide by the university's protocol and sign a contract and waiver stating such.  In the letter of support the faculty or community sponsor must address supervision and monitoring (frequency and duration) and discuss ‘check-in' plans (at least one check-in over the summer in person or by phone).  When notified of the award fellows must submit emergency contact info, a travel plan and description of in-country accommodations.
