Opportunities for Prospective Graduate Students
Coursework and Research Opportunities
Your work will include
coursework and research with some of the leading scholars in the nation,
travel and presentations at research conferences, professional development,
leadership work on major research grants, and the opportunity to join
a supportive team that is developing a new vision of doctoral preparation.
Central to this vision are high expectations for publication and very intensive
work within a collaborative, team approach to research and inquiry.
We will award up to four Neag New Literacies Scholars from among those
who apply and are accepted into our Ph.D. programs in Reading Education
or Literacy, Language & Culture (Curriculum and Instruction),
Cognition
and Instruction, or Learning
Technology (both in Educational Psychology).
The awards provide full tuition and a 9-month stipend of approximately
$19,000 for 20 hours of work per week or approximately $9,500 for 10
hours of work per week.

Department of Education and conducted in collaboration with a research
team from Clemson University or a 19-month adolescent literacy study funded

Initiative. Additional, summer employment and professional development
opportunities are often available.
