JCP82 Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 (edited) Howdy! Most of the Ph.D. programs in education that I am looking at offer full funding + stipends to most/all of their students, but not all of them do, and the stipends that are given don't always seem to cover even very modest living expenses. I want start looking for potential sources of outside funding for a Ph.D. program, but don't even know where to begin. Does anybody have any suggestions? Thanks!

t_ruth Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 NSF GRFP depending on your specific area. But really, I wouldn't go to a PhD program that didn't offer funding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blithe Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I agree with previous post: no funding for PhD, don't go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coyabean Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 It depends upon your sub-discipline. Education is so broad and some areas have negative associations in academia. If you are far away from the "professional" track of teacher training then you can sell a research-intensive sub-discipline to Ford. Spencer is the biggie for our discipline. There isn't too much that is education-specific so, again, your sub-discipline matters greatly. If you're in ed psych look at psych funding, quantitative measurement look at data centers like IES, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
