General information

Become an Institutional Partner
How Individual Universities May Partner

Individual institutions (both inside and outside of participating SREB states) can partner with the SREB-State Doctoral Scholars Program. To start the process:

  • The interested scholar or faculty member should meet with the graduate dean and department chair about the DSP program.
  • The scholar/faculty member should provide the program overview, DSP benefits and program participation options. (These documents are listed below)
  • If the institution is interested in partnering, please contact Tiffany Harrison to set up a meeting between Dr. Ansley Abraham, director of the SREB-State Doctoral Scholars Program, and the dean and chair.
  • A custom agreement would be made for the scholar(s).

The institution would be required to commit to supporting the scholar with a stipend and tuition coverage.
