2026-2027 Faculty Fellowship Application

  • Faculty Fellowship Application 2026-2027

  • Fordham University's University Research Council considers the award of a Faculty Fellowship to be a form of University investment in a faculty member's future productivity, and therefore has an expectation that an awarded faculty member both (i) return to Fordham University at the conclusion of the Fellowship period; and (ii) acknowledge his/her receipt of a Fordham Faculty Fellowship in any outcomes that result from it (e.g., publication). 

    Please note that you cannot save the information, so you should be prepared to complete the form in a single sitting.

    Responses to all items are required to submit the form. When you finish the form, please click submit to send the information to the Office of Research. If you do not receive a thank you pop-up, your application was not received. If you missed the pop-up, you should also receive an email, although these sometimes end up in spam filters.

    If you have any questions regarding the review or award process, please email the Office of Research: research@fordham.edu.

    Applications are due no later than 11:59pm on September 15, 2025.

    Please Note: Award decisions will be emailed no later than December 15th, 2025.

  • 5. For what period are you requesting a fellowship?*

  • If your ability to accept a full academic year is contingent on obtaining external support that is at present uncertain, please:

    (a) request funding for only one semester;
    (b) draft your narrative with a single semester timeline in mind while making it clear to reviewers that your project is extendable to a full academic year AND you will seek such an extension if external support is awarded,
    (c) list source(s) from which you are seeking external support.

    Please note that requests for extension of the fellowship to a full year if external funding is obtained will be considered favorably. However, requests to shorten an awarded Fellowship from a full year to a single semester are not normally granted.

    If your ability to take a full academic year fellowship is not contingent on external support, or if external support has already been obtained, please disregard the recommendation above and request a full academic year. You may want to indicate what external support has been attained or why external support is not necessary in your narrative.
