HumRRO Fellowship 2026

About this scholarship

The HumRRO Fellowship supports doctoral candidates conducting dissertation research in industrial-organizational psychology or educational measurement and evaluation with a one-time stipend.

The HumRRO Fellowship is a doctoral-level award offered by the Human Resources Research Organization (HumRRO) in the United States. It is designed to support PhD candidates whose dissertation research aligns with HumRRO's areas of interest, particularly industrial-organizational psychology and educational measurement and evaluation.

Based on available postings, the fellowship provides a non-renewable stipend of USD 18,000, typically paid in two installments. The funding is intended to help candidates continue making strong progress toward dissertation completion while recognizing academic achievement, research promise, and professional productivity.

The programme is aimed at students who have already advanced to doctoral candidacy and have an approved dissertation proposal. Applicants are expected to be actively engaged in dissertation research at the time of application, but should not already be finished or too close to completion. Fellowship recipients are also expected to present their research during a visit to HumRRO and may have opportunities to interact with HumRRO staff.

In general, this fellowship is suitable for students pursuing research careers in psychological assessment, workforce and organizational studies, testing, evaluation, and related quantitative or behavioral science fields. The opportunity appears to be hosted in the United States and is not tied to a single university, so applicants typically apply directly to the fellowship programme rather than through a specific institution.

Prospective applicants should look for the current call for applications, review field-specific eligibility carefully, and prepare materials related to their dissertation status, research quality, and academic progress.
