GU-Q Doctoral Fellowship
In partnership with the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, the GU-Q Doctoral Fellowship program identifies late-stage PhD candidates at Georgetown to serve an academic year on the Qatar campus. This cross-campus program will provide our faculty with mentoring, collaborative research, and co-teaching opportunities. Doctoral fellows will benefit from conducting research and teaching in a different cultural and geopolitical context, expanding their professional experience and intellectual communities. Fellows will work toward the completion of their dissertations while serving as instructors of record for one course a semester. Candidates were nominated by their respective graduate programs, and were selected by a joint GU and GU-Q committee.
