The Institute for Gender, Race, Sexuality and Social Justice offers up to three doctoral fellowships on issues connected to inequality, social change, and justice.
UBC’s Four Year Doctoral Fellowship provides:
• $18,000 stipend plus full tuition coverage
• Supervision by leading scholars doing research that focuses on difference/s, diversity, equality, gender, race, sexuality and politics using critical, intersectional feminist, and post-colonial frameworks
The UBC 4YF Doctoral Fellowships are competitively offered to the most promising candidates whose work have the potential to advance research and understanding in social justice.
To be eligible, students must fulfill all admission requirements for the doctoral program, have a master’s in gender, race, sexuality and social justice or related field (or be willing to take extra courses to gain such preparation), and be committed to the pursuit of a PhD. Applicants interested in this opportunity are encouraged to contact faculty with similar interests early in the application cycle to hone research questions and interests. Applicants are also expected to apply for any other funding for which they may be eligible (e.g. SSHRC).
