Graduate Student Funding

The basic financial support package for graduates in the Joukowsky Institute for Archaeology is provided by the Graduate School through a variety of means over the course of a student’s career at Brown University.

Funding may include:

  • Fellowships,
  • Teaching fellowships (when a graduate creates and teaches his or her own class),
  • Teaching assistantships (when a graduate works closely with a professor and a class), and
  • Proctorships (non-instructional academic employment).

The Graduate School and the Joukowsky Institute view teaching appointments and proctorships as prime opportunities to gain professional and pedagogical experience. In addition, the Joukowsky Institute offers funding for research and travel or other dissertation-related expenses via application to the Director and the Director of Graduate Studies. Students are also encouraged to seek out other fellowships and awards.

Proctorships

Graduate students in the Joukowsky Institute for Archaeology – when not in their first or fourth year of funding when they are typically on full fellowship – receive support through a combination of Teaching Assistantships, Teaching Fellowships or Proctorships.
