Student Financial Assistance
Title VI Foreign Language and Area Studies Fellowships
The Title VI Foreign
Language and Area Studies (FLAS) fellowship is awarded on an
annual competitive basis to incoming and continuing graduate students.
This fellowship provides for tuition fees and a living stipend.
Students must study a Southeast Asian language and undertake area
studies course work that supports their research program. Fellowships
are awarded for both the academic year and summer. The Center administers
the selection process for the FLAS fellowships, while the Berkeley
Graduate Division disburses the funds. A faculty committee reviews
graduate student applications submitted in February and awards are
normally announced in May. FLAS competitions are limited to permanent
residents or U.S. citizens.
CSEAS travel & research grants
The Center for Southeast Asia Studies manages a small grants program
for UC Berkeley graduate students who are pursuing humanities or
social science research relating to Vietnam, Cambodia or Laos. Travel
grants up to $500 are available during the academic year to students
who will be presenting papers at academic conferences or who need
to travel to particular sites or libraries for research purposes.
Summer research grants up to $2,000 may be used for research funds,
exploratory site research or acquisition of special research tools
or skills. Grant awards are based both on the scholarly merit of
the applications and the needs of the applicants. The program carries
no limitation as to the level, departmental affiliation, or citizenship
of the applicant. Applicants with a record of satisfactory progress
in their degree programs will be given priority. Recipients are
expected to remain enrolled in the university during the term of
their research project. Deadlines for applications are announced
in the fall.
Pacific Rim Research Program
The University of California Pacific
Rim Research Program is a competitive grants program primarily
supporting collaborative research by UC faculty and graduate students
and their colleagues in other institutions.
Fellowships for Graduate Students
Graduate students are advised to visit the Graduate
Fellowship Office to explore other options for graduate student
funding.
