Graduate External Fellowships

There are a wide variety of fellowships available to CLA graduate students through extramural funding agencies.  Typically, these fellowships fund student research either within or outside of the university.  

The best way to identify extramural fellowships is to use the Pivot  search engine, the primary source of funding information at Purdue. Pivot gives you the ability to identify funding opportunities and connect with other researchers, both within the Purdue community and globally. It combines the most comprehensive, editorially maintained database of funding opportunities with a unique database of 3 million+ scholar profiles. Its proprietary algorithm compiles pre-populated Purdue researcher profiles and matches them to current funding opportunities in the expansive COS database. This allows users to search for a funding opportunity and instantly view matching faculty both inside and outside of Purdue. Conversely, a search for a scholar will link to matching funding opportunities. 

If you have questions, do not hesitate to reach out to the CLA Office of Graduate Educations cla-adr@purdue.edu .
