MSU is now be offering several prestigious fellowship opportunities for
outstanding applicants. For our Fall 2020-21 cohort, applicants will
compete for these following fellowships, which are offered in addition to
our standard stipend, health insurance, tuition remission, and generous
travel allowance (last year we funded every doctoral student’s trip to
major conventions where they had a refereed paper!):

Dean’s Award ($10,000)
Brandt Outstanding Doctoral Award ($7,500)

Thanks for considering/passing this along to any excellent undergrad or MA
(or unhappy PhD ;) students in your department!

or the director of our program (Patricia Huddleston, huddles2 at msu.edu).

And hope you're all weathering the pandemic/presidential pandemonium as
peacefully as possible.
