The fellowship provides specialized training in two distinct phases: Year one focuses on alcohol and other drug (AOD) treatment through the DAY (Drugs, Alcohol, & You) Programs, where fellows work with clients struggling with substance use as part of a multidisciplinary team. Year two focuses on General Services, providing individual and group therapy, initial consultations, and specialized training in areas such as trauma or eating disorders. The program is designed to meet partial requirements for licensure in Colorado and emphasizes the development of clinically-skilled, ethical, self-aware, and culturally competent mental health professionals. Fellows participate in comprehensive training activities including individual supervision, multicultural training, case consultation, seminars, and collaborative work with psychology, medical, psychiatry, and other professionals in an integrated healthcare setting.
Dissertation Fellowship
The Dedalus Foundation Dissertation Fellowship is awarded annually to a PhD candidate at a university in the United States who is working on a dissertation related to painting, sculpture and allied arts from the twentieth century. The fellowship carries a stipend of $25,000 and is designed to support doctoral candidates who have completed all coursework and examinations and been advanced to candidacy within their departments.

A jury of distinguished scholars determines the fellowship recipient.
DOE NNSA Stewardship Science Graduate Fellowship
The Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration Stewardship Science Graduate Fellowship (DOE NNSA SSGF) provides excellent financial benefits and professional development opportunities to students pursuing doctoral degrees in stewardship science areas: materials under extreme conditions, nuclear science or high energy density physics. Together, these fields of study address complex science and engineering problems critical to stewardship science. The program is funded by the U.S. Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration. The fellowship provides a $45,000 annual stipend, payment of full tuition and fees, and a yearly professional development allowance. The fellowship is renewable up to four years, supporting students through their doctoral studies. The program seeks senior undergraduates and first- and second-year graduate students who are U.S. citizens and committed to full-time doctoral study. A unique feature of the program is the required 12-week minimum DOE laboratory practicum experience, typically conducted during summer months at one of four DOE NNSA laboratory sites. This practicum offers fellows the opportunity to work with respected scientists on research areas important to national defense, allowing them to learn new skills and expand their research capabilities outside of their thesis studies. Fellows also participate in an annual meeting to share research and strengthen connections within the stewardship science community. Since 2006, the program has supported national defense research by equipping scientists and engineers with mission-critical tools for maintaining the nation's nuclear stockpile. More than 105 fellowships have been awarded to students at 45 Ph.D.-granting U.S. universities, with alumni working in industry, academia, and national laboratories.
Danone North America Gut Microbiome, Yogurt and Probiotics Fellowship Grant
Danone North America awards two graduate students grants of $25,000 each to support excellence in science with an interest in studying the gut microbiome, probiotics and/or yogurt in human health and wellness. Applicants are encouraged to submit proposals that explore measures of human health and wellness, focusing on topics such as brain function, growth and development, digestive health, weight management, or heart health; and factors that influence the gut microbiome. The grant is designed for research on health and wellness, long-term health and longevity, growth and development, or performance—not for disease treatment or clinical management. Only research proposals utilizing in vitro and ethical human clinical studies are accepted, as Danone does not rely on animal testing. Research cannot employ commercial probiotic strains; only publicly available, non-commercial strains are acceptable. The award may be applied towards tuition or research-related projects and will be paid directly to the student's educational institution to support continued education during the 2024-2025 academic year.
Díaz-Ayala Library Travel Grants
The Cuban Research Institute (CRI), the Kimberly Green Latin American and Caribbean Center, and Florida International University Libraries offer the Díaz-Ayala Library Travel Grants to study the special collections related to Cuba and Cuban Americans. These awards are offered in honor of Cristóbal Díaz-Ayala, the prominent music collector and independent scholar who donated his Cuban and Latin American Popular Music Collection to FIU in 2001. The grants provide scholars and graduate students the opportunity to conduct research on Cuba and its diaspora at the FIU Green Library, thereby expanding access to the library's unique holdings and enhancing its value as a national resource. CRI, LACC, and FIU Libraries offer research stipends of up to $2,000 each to offset the costs of a minimum one-week stay (five working days) in Miami to consult the collections. Scholars in the humanities and the social sciences whose work will be enhanced by using the resources of the collections are encouraged to apply. Priority is given to scholars who are not previous recipients of the award. Two of the awards are given to U.S.-based scholars or graduate students, in accordance with the requirements of the U.S. Department of Education Title VI Grant. Those residing in other countries are encouraged to apply for the remaining grant. As a condition of the award, recipients give a lunchtime lecture at FIU for faculty and students on their recent research.
