Graduate Fellowships provide an enhanced context for advanced doctoral students, including the opportunity for presentation of work and benefits or critique from an exciting group of Pembroke Center Faculty Fellows, Postdoctoral Fellows and distinguished Visiting Fellows.
Brown University's interdisciplinary opportunities support advanced graduate students. These opportunities provide an enhanced context for advanced doctoral students, allowing them to participate actively in the activities of interdisciplinary Centers and Institutes at Brown.
Summer Proctorship positions provide a project-based, internship-style experience and provide graduate students with new professional and career development opportunities to enhance their experience and skills. The Pembroke Center hosts proctors through its Pembroke Center Archives Feminist Theory Project and via differences: A Journal of Feminist Cultural Studies.
Steinhaus/Zisson grants support undergraduate and graduate student research at the Pembroke Center. Student research may be on any topic related to the work of the Pembroke Center, with preference given to research on women's education, health, community activism, philanthropy, and economic status, and women's rights and well-being in the United States and in developing countries around the world.
The Pembroke Center for Teaching and Research on Women annually awards the Marie J. Langlois Dissertation Prize for an outstanding dissertation in the area of feminist studies.
