NEW CENTURY SCHOLARS DOCTORAL SCHOLARSHIP

The American Speech-Language-Hearing Foundation (ASHFoundation) invites doctoral students accepted to, or enrolled in, a research doctoral program to apply for the New Century Scholars Doctoral Scholarship.

This program is designed to support strong doctoral candidates who will pursue a teacher-investigator career in an academic environment at the university/college level in the United States.

For 2022, the ASHFoundation will award up to 15 scholarships of $10,000 each.

Students must meet the following criteria to be eligible for the New Century Scholars Doctoral Scholarship.

• Students must be accepted to, or currently enrolled in, a research doctoral program (PhD or equivalent) in communication sciences and disorders. Clinical doctoral students are not eligible to apply for this program; however, clinical doctoral students are eligible for other ASHFoundation funding programs. Students completing their doctoral program prior to May 2023 are not eligible for this November 2022 funding cycle.
• Students with full-time status will be given priority. However, students with part-time status will be considered.
• Students must be either a NSSLHA member or an ASHA member at the time of application.
• Students should be committed to a teacher-investigator career in communication sciences and disorders in the United States.

Note: To meet the goal of supporting teacher-investigator careers, the ASHFoundation expects to identify students committed to attaining a research doctoral degree and to working in a higher education academic community in the discipline in the United States. Should a recipient be unable to fulfill each eligibility requirement, the ASHFoundation will expect funding repayment to provide an opportunity for another recipient to meet the original purpose of this competition.
