Graduate Research Funding

Our Ph.D. students conduct innovative research in archives around the world, with survivors of genocides, and at sites of mass violence.

They secure prestigious fellowships, like those offered by the United States Holocaust Memorial, the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany, which is supported by the Foundation Remembrance, Responsibility and Future and by the German Federal Ministry of Finance, the Fulbright Foundation, and the National Association for Armenian Studies and Research, and travel the globe to present their research at conferences and academic institutions. They publish in peer-reviewed journals and contribute chapters to edited volumes.

The Strassler Center depends upon generous financial support to underwrite the cost of doctoral fellowships and research awards.  This support has been crucial to establishing the Strassler Center as a leading institution for doctoral training in Holocaust History. Thanks to continued funding, our students have presented their research at conferences around the globe, they have published their doctoral research with important academic presses, and they have taken leadership positions at colleges, universities, museums, archives, and educational institutions.

In addition, our students benefit from stipends and research awards made possible by the following endowed funds:
