Chitkara University Fellowships (CUF) are designed for exceptional young graduates looking to embark on a career in research and academics. Chitkara University seeks to identify and encourage individuals of exceptional talent, as well as to provide them with the opportunity to be part of path-breaking research projects and prestigious Government research grants. Students are chosen for their academic achievements as well as their research potential in an interdisciplinary culture.

The fellowship program at Chitkara University has two objectives:
1) To enable participants to master the relevant methodological tools of research.
2) To advance the current body of knowledge.

Our fellowship programs are designed to support a range of activities including graduate study in a specific field, research to advance work on a particular issue, developing a new community-based organisation or initiative, training and reflection to support the fellow’s growth, and opportunities to further explore a particular field of work.
