The Emerging Scholars Fellow Program seeks to promote a diverse faculty and curriculum at Stockton University, as well as provide mentoring and teaching opportunities. The program has four inter-related goals:
Both advanced graduate students and recent PhDs are welcome to apply. Graduate students should be close to finishing their dissertation, and recent PhDs should be no more than two years beyond their graduation date. If accepted, fellows should consider the program their principle form of employment while in residence. |
