The Cornell Jewish Studies Research and Travel Grant, funded by the Pearl and Otto Delikat Holocaust Memorial Fund, supports graduate students seeking to do archival or field research or to take advantage of learning opportunities not otherwise available on the Cornell campus. With the approval of their advisor, a student may apply for funding to cover expenses related to domestic travel, tuition for non-Cornell summer programs, and research expenses. Support for international travel will only be approved if Cornell guidelines permit such travel by summer 2020.
Please read these guidelines thoroughly. Students should feel free to consult with Jewish Studies director Jonathan Boyarin (jab857) about applying for a grant.
Guidelines and Eligibility
All Cornell graduate students are eligible, but demonstrated relevance of the proposed activity to Jewish Studies broadly conceived is a sine qua non for support.
Students may apply once per year, and may apply for and receive multiple grants.
