Peter Lyman Graduate Fellowship in New Media

Stipend of $5,000
Applications Due: February 6, 2012

The Peter Lyman Graduate Fellowship in New Media, established in the memory of esteemed UC Berkeley Professor Peter Lyman provides a stipend to a UC Berkeley Ph.D. candidate to support the writing of his or her Ph.D. dissertation on a topic related to New Media. Some preference will be given to those doing research related to children and youth, and to BCNM Designated Emphasis students.

Originality and quality of the research are the primary criteria. The amount of the stipend depends on the size of the fund. In 2011 the fellowship amount will be $5,000.

Any UC Berkeley Ph.D. candidate who has passed the Qualifying Exam and is in good standing can apply. Applications must include a one-page research summary describing how the research is relevant to the Fellowship, brief reference from the student's Research Advisor, list of the Ph.D. Committee members, expected completion date, and the student's full contact information.

Applications must be received by 6 February and should be submitted to BCNM, 426 Sutardja Dai Hall.

Applications will be reviewed by a faculty committee from the Berkeley Center for New Media. The Peter Lyman Scholar will be announced in early March of each year.
