The ERIE-IGERT traineeships provide 2 years of support. What about the remainder of my doctoral study?
In general, the home department or graduate program will provide financial support for ERIE doctoral students in the non-traineeship years. Details particular to each student’s situation will be contained in formal offer letters from the department and the ERIE program. In most, but not all cases, students will be offered a four-year package that includes two years of support as an IGERT Trainee. The form of subsequent financial support varies, including Teaching Assistantship (TA) and Research Assistantship (RA) appointments. The duration, stipend, and requirements will vary by department. In all cases, applicants are encouraged to coordinate with their ERIE faculty mentor to develop a clear understanding of the financial package and requirements.
