A. Call for Applications: Predoctoral Fellowships

Summary

With support from the National Institute of Aging (P30 AG012857), the Center on the Demography and Economics of Aging at NORC at University of Chicago offers four predoctoral fellowships. The goal of these pre-doctoral fellowships is to train graduate students interested in the fields of demography and economics of aging through the development of basic methodological tools, applied research, policy-making and analysis, and professional development.

Benefits

The NIA predoctoral fellowship stipend for 2013-2014 is TBA (stipend information for past years is available at: grants.nih.gov/training/NRSA_Stipend_History_Graph.pdf). Fellowships are renewable for a second year with acceptable progress. The fellowships include health insurance for the recipient fellow. Fellows are eligible for modest travel support and work space, as available.

Additionally, all trainees and affiliates benefit from: formal affiliation with the Center on Aging; an active research environment in the study of demography and aging; participation in a community of graduate student and postdoctoral level scholars; training in the practice of research on aging; training in the responsible conduct of research; and additional mentorship with University of Chicago faculty.

Eligibility

Candidates must be a Ph.D. candidate with at least two years of graduate work and an expressed interest in demography or economics of aging. Fellowships are restricted to U.S. citizens and permanent residents. Previous research in the demography or economics of aging is not necessary; however, a future commitment is. Interested students in the first three years of graduate school are ineligible for the funded fellowship but are encouraged to apply to the training affiliates program.

Application Materials

All application materials must be submitted to Jennifer Hanis-Martin at the address below by Tuesday, May 28, 2013. Applications may be submitted electronically in PDF format. However, applicants must note that recommendation letters must be signed by the recommender.

Application materials for the Center on the Demography and Economics of Aging NIA predoctoral training program include: a statement of research interests; 2) curriculum vitae; 3) official transcript; and 4) one letter of recommendation from a faculty member affiliated with the Center on the Demography and Economics of Aging who will serve as the applicant’s advisor.

There is no page limit for the statement of research interests but we encourage all applicants to provide enough information for the Center to make thoughtful decision in respect to applicants’ interests, experience, and aspirations. Applications are generally 3-5 pages; however, successful applicants have submitted statements that range in length and scope.

B. Call for Applications: Predoctoral Training Affiliates

Summary

The Specialized Training Program at the Center on the Demography and Economics of Aging at NORC at University of Chicago, funded by the National Institute of Aging (P30 AG012857), is designed to train graduate students interested in the fields of demography and economics of aging through the development of basic and applied research, and policy-making and analysis. The affiliate program was created to increase collaboration and training among students who would not otherwise qualify for support from the program’s fellowships. Predoctoral affiliates actively participate in the training program by enrolling in relevant classes, working with Center mentors, and attending the weekly Demography Workshop and ‘post mortem’ discussion.

Benefits

Affiliates benefit from 1) early guidance in the development of research ideas and areas of specialty; 2) training and support in manuscript development, conference presentations and grant applications; and 3) direction in pursuing aging related courses and training. Moreover, Center on the Demography and Economics of Aging predoctoral training affiliates better positions themselves for future pre- or postdoctoral fellowships.

Additionally, all trainees and affiliates benefit from: formal affiliation with the Center on Aging, an active research environment in the study of demography and aging; participation in a community of graduate student and postdoctoral scholars; training in the practice of research on aging; training in the responsible conduct of research; and additional mentorship with University of Chicago faculty.

Eligibility

Candidates must be a Ph.D. candidate in the first three years of graduate work with an expressed interest in the demography and economics of aging.  While previous research on aging is not necessary, a future commitment is.
