Graduate Student Financial SupportThe Program in Agrarian Studies has some limited funds available to foster interdisciplinary work in any field on agrarian themes. We expect students to pursue other sources of funding in addition to the Program’s funds. Support is available on a competitive basis. How to Apply for Graduate Student Aid
Purpose1. Preliminary On-site Planning of Research
2. Supplementary Interdisciplinary WorkGraduate students working on agrarian themes may find that additional work outside their field is necessary. Funds are available in this connection for work outside one’s primary field at Yale or elsewhere, for special linguistic training, methodological training, etc. Such funds could be used to supplement primary support for a semester or summer at another institution to acquire such training. 3. Institutional ReciprocitySupport is also available for gestures of reciprocity to local institutions in low income countries who assist graduate students with their doctoral work. Such funds might, illustratively, cover an extra month of support so the student might teach a seminar or assist with methodological training, buy a small collection of research materials not easily available locally, help in the arrangement of exchanges and/or joint research.
