Graduate Research Fund Request
The Department of History provides $3,000 to support PhD students during their time at the University of Rochester. These funds can be used to attend conferences, pay for research travel or materials, support specialized training, or acquire software. To use these funds, students should consult with their advisors and obtain permission in advance from the Graduate Coordinator or DGS by submitting a funding request form. Students may not spend more than $1,500 of their funds in any one academic year. Receipts must be submitted within 30 days of purchase or return from travel.
Fiscal year is July 1-June 30. Funding is based on return date of travel or date of payment.
Please complete this form in its entirety to request funding from the Department of History. Applications will be reviewed on their merits; funding is not automatic.
