The American Educational Research Association (AERA) is pleased to announce the AERA Minority Dissertation Fellowship in Education Research<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://AERA.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT0yNzIwMTA2JnA9MSZ1PTM4MDQyMTM1NSZsaT0yMDEwNDU1MQ/index.html__;!5W9E9PnL_ac!Ui-VyQ4YO6GYvfdWlXXTM_0Y-3B4W_Zy6KvP9VTk75g2NGsWNHJulArOtUBtNibl$>. The Council of the AERA established the fellowship program to provide support for doctoral dissertation research, to advance education research by outstanding minority graduate students, and to improve the quality and diversity of university faculties. This fellowship is targeted for members of racial and ethnic groups historically underrepresented in higher education (e.g., African Americans, Alaskan Natives, American Indians, Asian Americans, Hispanics or Latinos, and Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islanders). This program offers doctoral fellowships to enhance the competitiveness of outstanding minority scholars for academic appointments at major research universities. It supports fellows conducting education research and provides mentoring and guidance toward the completion of their doctoral studies.

Award

Each fellowship award is for 1 year, beginning July 1, 2020 or later, and is nonrenewable. This fellowship program is intended as a write-up fellowship. Fellowships are awarded for doctoral dissertation research conducted under faculty sponsorship in any accredited university in the United States.
