Student Support

Ryan Institute Fellowships

This new fellowship program is for current graduate students who are seeking to pursue a Ph.D. in the interdisciplinary neuroscience. These competitive graduate fellowships include one year of full tuition and stipend. This program is made possible due to generous support from the George and Anne Ryan Institute for Neuroscience.

 

Teaching and Research Assistantships

Graduate Teaching Assistantships include a stipend and tuition waiver. The duties may include helping with lecture and laboratory preparations, recitations, proctoring and grading of exams. INP graduate students have received teaching assistantships in chemistry and the biological sciences, such as physiology and human anatomy. To be competitive for a graduate teaching assistantship students must have completed at least two years of chemistry lecture and lab or taken anatomy or physiology courses during their undergraduate career.

Graduate Research Assistantships:
In addition, faculty have available Research Assistantships provided by external funding, which are awarded to their graduate students. The Research Assistantships may include tuition and stipend and the duties would include research work.

All applicants are automatically considered for financial aid in the form of Teaching or Research Assistantships, when their applications are received by the specified deadlines; no special aid application is necessary.
