Announcing the inaugural Incite Institute Doctoral Dissertation Grant recipients
May 29, 2024
In keeping with our intellectual and educational interest in engaging disciplines across the university, Incite funds ten $5,000 dissertation research grants for Columbia Graduate School of Arts & Sciences PhD students who have recently completed their prospectus.
In May 2024, we selected our inaugural cohort of grantees from across the university. From working with clinicians, patients, and investors to understand the financialization of fertility, to investigating alternative medical practices with residents of a former steel town, to building a sonic profile of the Western construct of Africa, the 2024 cohort’s projects cross academic boundaries and engage with the world outside the university.
We are gratified by the interest in this initiative from across the Arts & Sciences. The intellectual ability of all applicants and the quality of their projects were extremely strong. We congratulate our grantees and wish all applicants the very best in their work.
