Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Office of Postsecondary Education (OPE) in the U.S. Department of Education (ED) sponsors four graduate fellowship programs: the Fulbright-Hays Doctoral Dissertation Research Abroad (DDRA) fellowship program, the Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) fellowship program, the Graduate Assistance in Areas of National Need (GAANN) fellowship program, and the Jacob K. Javits fellowship program. This report describes the academic and employment outcomes as of 2006 of graduate students who received financial support through one of these four federal fellowship programs between 1997 and 1999. The programs vary significantly with respect to their goals, the number of fellowships supported, and the amount of funding dispersed. Despite their differences, however, all of these programs are intended to encourage academically talented students to become experts in fields important to the national interest. The study was conducted in two parts: an institution-level survey and a fellowship-level survey. Using contact information obtained through the institution survey or available from ED records, survey researchers located and invited 72 percent of the sample of 5,525 fellowships to participate in a Web-based survey. Despite differences among these four fellowship programs in purpose and implementation, there are noteworthy similarities in their outcomes (Table A). With respect to education outcomes, the majority of fellows in each of the four programs completed their degrees, with the percentage of degree completions ranging among programs from about two-thirds to nine-tenths of fellowships. Fellows who completed their degrees tended to do so in less time than graduate students overall. National surveys indicate that doctoral students who complete their degrees do so in seven to twelve years, depending on their field of study, with students in the humanities and social sciences taking more time than students in the natural sciences. With respect to employment outcomes, large proportions of students who received fellowships participated in the labor force after completing their fellowships, most commonly in work that was related to their fellowship-gained expertise and was part of a career they were pursuing. Although this report provides some national comparison data on graduate students' demographic and academic characteristics, degree completion, and time taken to complete a degree, it is important to realize that the students who receive these fellowships are highly qualified, high-achieving students, i.e., students who are probably more likely than the average graduate student to complete a degree or gain employment in their fields without the financial assistance and prestige effects of these fellowships. Students compete among their classmates, within institutions or across the nation, for these fellowships: students who win these competitions are superior students by definition. Without a true comparison group--i.e., students of similar qualifications who did not receive these fellowships--it is not possible to attribute these fellows' success to their receipt of the fellowships. Appended are: (1) Technical Notes and Methodology; (2) Survey Data Elements; and (3) Survey Instruments. (Contains 25 figures, 162 tables and 17 footnotes.).

Book excerpt: The Fulbright-Hays Doctoral Dissertation Research Abroad program provides grants to colleges and universities to fund individual doctoral students to conduct research in other countries in modern foreign languages and area studies for periods of six to 12 months. This program holds an annual competition. Institutions of higher education in the United States are eligible to apply for grants under the Fulbright-Hays Doctoral Dissertation Research Abroad Program. Students must apply through their institutions. A student is eligible to receive a fellowship if he or she meets all of the following criteria: (1) Is a citizen or national of the United States or is a permanent resident of the United States; (2) Is a graduate student in good standing at an institution of higher education in the United States who, when the fellowship begins, is admitted to candidacy in a doctoral program in modern foreign languages and area studies at that institution; (3) Is planning a teaching career in the United States upon graduation; and (4) Possesses adequate skills in the language(s) necessary to carry out the dissertation project. Students may propose research for six to 12 months. This fellowship may not be renewed. A final report is due from each fellow 90 days after the end of the grant period. Students should contact their institution's project director for electronic reporting instructions. Lists of the terms and conditions of the grant and the expenses covered by the award are provided. This program is administered by the International Education Programs Service (IEPS) under the Fulbright-Hays Act.
