IRCPL Graduate Summer Research Fellowships

The IRCPL Graduate Summer Research Fellowships are available to Columbia University graduate students for any type of research activity related to the study of religion or secularism. The fellowship provides each student a maximum of $4,000 to cover expenses related to their research during the summer, including living and travel expenses. Award recipients are required to attend a research fellow roundtable discussion prior to the dispersing of research funds and are expected to present and participate in a research fellows colloquium the following academic year. This colloquium provides fellows with opportunities to present their work and participate in other activities, including those related to professional development. Master's and doctoral students at Columbia University, Union Theological Seminary, Jewish Theological Seminary, and Teachers College are welcome to apply.
