AAA Minority Dissertation Financial Assistance
The American Anthropological Association is conducting annual dissertation assistance for minority doctoral candidates in anthropology to encourage ethnic minorities to pursue and complete doctoral degrees in anthropology. The Association is sponsoring a $10,000 non-renewable assistance that can be used by the student to complete the write-up phase of his/her dissertation.
Aside from excellent academic grades, the applicants for this program must be a US citizen and should be a member of any underrepresented ethnic minority group. The applicant must be a member of AAA for at least one month prior to submitting materials for the AAA Minority Dissertation Fellowship Program and should be also admitted to degree candidacy before the dissertation fellowship is awarded.
