Fellowship and Grant Opportunities Funded Through NC State
For most purposes, graduate funding falls into two major categories: institutional funds that are already "owned by" or awarded to a university, and nationally competitive funds that are awarded by national, regional, or private agencies to individual graduate students and thus, theoretically, may be taken from one institution to another. Institutional support for NC State graduate students is most often provided by the student's graduate program. While students typically face stiff competition for any graduate funding, the pool of applicants for "intra-institutional" funds is usually smaller than for those national and regional funds for which graduate students from hundreds of institutions are competing.
- A number of fellowship and grant programs which are administered by the Graduate School are listed below.
