The Presidential Management Fellowship Program, administered by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM), is the Federal Government’s cornerstone succession planning program to help agencies meet their critical need for leadership continuity. Since 1977, the PMF Program has helped Federal agencies meet their workforce and succession planning needs by attracting outstanding master’s and doctoral-level students to Federal service.
Graduate students from all academic disciplines who expect to complete an advanced degree (master's or doctoral) during the 2010 - 2011 academic year are eligible to be nominated for the upcoming application period. Students can use this two-year fellowship as a stepping stone to highly visible and respected leadership positions in the Federal Government.
Individuals applying to the PMF Program must be officially nominated by their dean, chair, or DGS. For more information, please visit the PMF Program listing on the Graduate School's Funding Database.
The Brown-Tougaloo Partnership (BTP) Faculty Fellows Program is designed to offer advanced graduate students at Brown the opportunity to teach undergraduate courses at Tougaloo College in Tougaloo, Mississippi, and aims to develop proficiency in undergraduate teaching, fully-immerse graduate students in faculty life, experience delivering instruction to a diverse student population in a rural, college setting, and to enhance core curricular offerings at Tougaloo College. All expenses are paid by the Brown-Tougaloo Partnership, the Graduate School, and Tougaloo College.
Fourth- or fifth-year doctoral candidates from all academic disciplines are eligible to apply for this fellowship. Applicants must have teaching experience (or complete training from Sheridan Center for Teaching and Learning prior to departure to Tougaloo College), obtain DGS approval, and identify a faculty mentor at Tougaloo College. For more information, please visit the BTP Faculty Fellows listing on the Graduate School's Funding Database.
