Marion Morse Wood Fellowship (Spring 2018)

The Graduate College's Marion Morse Wood Fellowship Fund supports University of Illinois graduate students whose research focuses on interpersonal communication. 

The Fellowship provides a stipend of $12,000 for the academic year, along with coverage of tuition, service fee, health service fee, AFMA fee, library fee, as well as basic dental and vision insurance. In addition, the Fellow will receive partial payment of the graduate student health insurance fee for the academic year.

The criteria used in making awards are the relevance and significance of the student's research in interpersonal communication as determined from the research summary and letters of support, along with the student's productivity and efficient progress toward the degree.

Two fellowships will be available for 2017-2018. Previous recipients of the fellowship are not eligible for nomination.
