The Chancellor's Doctoral Incentive Program

The Chancellor's Doctoral Incentive Program was instituted to diversify the pool of qualified faculty candidates. CDIP is one of the largest programs in the nation. The program provides significant financial support to full-time doctoral students enrolled in an accredited institution here or abroad. In some cases, the loan principal and interest are "forgiven." Applications can be downloaded at the CSU website.

Pre-Doctoral Program

The Pre-Doctoral Program offers grants for economically and/or educationally disadvantaged juniors, seniors, and master's students intending to pursue a Ph.D. The program includes funds to support travel to conferences and doctoral institutions and may include additional funding for summer research projects. Applications for this CSU-wide competition can be downloaded at their website.
