DIVERSITY FELLOWS PROGRAM
2011
To assist the development of a diverse and representative faculty, enhance the educational experience of our students, and better prepare UW- Milwaukee graduates for the increasingly diverse nation and interconnected global economy of the 21st century, the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) has established the Diversity Fellows Program (DFP). The Diversity Fellows Program provides Fellows with the opportunity to gain teaching experience while becoming acquainted with UWM and Milwaukee. At the same time, the Program provides our faculty the ability to interact with and develop relationships with the Fellows. Fellows will have the option to teach one course during UWM’s Summer Session (May 29 – July 7 2011), or to engage in an intensive research experience. Fellowships may also be available for the 2011 academic year, depending on the needs of the respective departments. Applications for study in any field represented on campus are welcomed.
Founded in 1956, the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, a major urban university committed to academic excellence, is located in the commercial and industrial hub of Wisconsin. The campus is in a pleasant residential neighborhood on Milwaukee's northeast side, only a few blocks from Lake Michigan. UW-Milwaukee has a student enrollment of approximately 28,000 and is one of the two "doctoral cluster" campuses in the 13-campus University of Wisconsin System.
ELIGIBILITY: Either advanced or recently graduated underrepresented doctoral/terminal degree students with preference given to US citizens and permanent residents. Fellows receive a $6,000.00 stipend, university housing, and a travel allowance.
