There are funding sources that are available through UGA and the Odum School for competitive students, MS students will be encouraged and PhD students will be expected to pursue additional grants and fellowships within UGA and from other funding agencies (e.g., EPA, NSF, the Fulbright Program) during their graduate studies. Please note, there are two fellowship programs through UGA to support MS students.
When possible, I encourage potential students who are US citizens to apply for the NSF GRFP program or the Ford Fellowship Programs.
