CDDRL Pre-doctoral and Postdoctoral Fellowships For Rwandan Students


CDDRL Accepting Applications: November 03, 2015 –
January 15, 2016
The Center welcomes applications from pre-doctoral
students at the write-up stage and from post-doctoral scholars working in any
of the four program areas of democracy, development, evaluating the efficacy of
democracy promotion, and rule of law. The Center expects to award two or more
fellowships for the 2016-2017 academic year.

Pre-doctoral fellows receive stipends comparable to
that awarded by the Stanford Graduate Fellowships program; the Center also pays
non-matriculated student tuition for pre-doctoral fellows as required by
Stanford University. Post-doctoral fellows receive salaries commensurate
with experience and with consideration given to university established minimums
for a term period of 9 months. Healthcare and other benefits are also provided
as required by Stanford University for both pre- and post doctoral fellows.
Fellows spend the academic year at Stanford University
completing their projects, participating in seminars, and interacting with each
other and the resident faculty and research staff. The Center facilities on the
Stanford campus include offices and cubicles. Fellows have access to other
Stanford libraries as well as exercise facilities.
Eligibility
Pre-doctoral fellows must be enrolled currently in a
doctoral program or equivalent through the time of intended residency at
Stanford, and must be at the dissertation write up (post course work) phase of
their doctoral program. Post-doctoral fellows must have earned their PhD within
3 years of the start of the fellowship, or plan to have
successfully defended their Ph.D. dissertations by July 31, 2016.
Application Process
The application deadline for the 2016-17 academic year
is Friday, January 15, 2016. 
Applicants are
required to submit a completed application form, letter of application of no
more than 3 typed pages, current resume, three letters of recommendations, a
statement of proposed research (5-10 pages) and a complete set of transcripts
(undergraduate and graduate). The Center Committee will only review complete
files. Notifications will be sent in mid to late-March.
