I am pleased to announce the launch of the 2012<\/strong> Jack Kent Cooke Foundation Dissertation Fellowship<\/strong> in support of advanced doctoral candidates in a variety of fields, including education and the social sciences. At the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation, we assist high-achieving low-income students, from middle school to graduate school, in reaching their full potential through education.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We have created the dissertation fellowships for doctoral candidates who are researching the population of student we serve<\/strong> in order to advance our understanding of the factors and contexts that help low-income students to overcome personal adversity and challenging socioeconomic circumstances to excel academically. We plan to use this knowledge to design programs and interventions that will help more low-income students identified as high-achieving in their primary and secondary school years to sustain their achievement levels through college and beyond.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The Jack Kent Cooke Foundation will award four fellowships of up to $25,000 <\/strong>in 2012 with plans to increase the number of fellowships in the coming years.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We would appreciate your bringing the fellowship announcement to the attention of those who would be most interested in this opportunity, including talented graduate students<\/span>, colleagues<\/span> serving as graduate student advisors and\/or offices<\/span> that publicize fellowship opportunities. Please use the flyer (see link below) to further advertise the fellowship.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Although applicants must be candidates for a doctoral degree at a graduate school in the United States, they need not be US citizens. Please note that the applicants’ graduate study may be in a diverse range of academic disciplines but their topic must be tied to the educational experiences of low-income, high-achieving students.<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
