The goal of the UNM-Mellon Doctoral Fellowship Program is to increase the number of doctorates awarded to students whose dissertation research integrates humanities and social sciences perspectives on issues of importance to Native American and/or Hispano communities in the US and Latin America.

Only doctoral students from the ten UNM-Mellon participating graduate programs are eligible to apply.  Other eligibility criteria are provided in the Call for Application attached herein.  This document includes all information pertinent to the application process: award terms and requirements, the application materials that must be provided, and selection process.  The Fellowship Application Form is also included as two separate attachments— pdf and docx versions of the application form that can be filled out electronically in adobe acrobat.
