Funding

Funding and Other Resources 

Successful applicants receive NRT funding for up to 2 years based on a competitive awards process.  Funding includes a $34,000 annual stipend, fully paid tuition and fees (approximately $15,000).  NRT trainees will have a dedicated office in a common space to facilitate effective transdisciplinary education and research. NRT trainees who wish to conduct research abroad will be assisted in securing funding to cover international travel expenses.

Eligibility

Funding is restricted to U.S. citizens and permanent residents who have been admitted into a graduate program at Portland State University. While MS students are considered, preference will be given to PhD students for admission to the program.
