University of Rhode Island College of Nursing PhD Student Scholar

The University of Rhode Island College of Nursing is offering three PhD scholarship opportunities for nurses interested in doctoral study. These awards support the PhD in Nursing and provide financial assistance toward tuition and fees for two years of full-time study.

Two scholarships cover 100% of tuition and fees, while one scholarship covers 50% of tuition and fees. The post highlights research areas connected to nursing practice and health policy, and the individual scholarship cards also mention research related to palliative and/or end-of-life care for persons, families, or communities with serious illness. One award also encourages applications from Rhode Island residents, single parents, and/or married students.

This is a strong fit for prospective doctoral students in nursing, health policy, and related health-care research topics. The opportunity is hosted by the University of Rhode Island and appears to be a scholarship/studentship rather than a job opening.

To begin, applicants should complete the linked Graduate School Information Request form. The College of Nursing says a member of the team will follow up directly. Questions about the program or scholarship criteria can be sent to [email protected].

Application window: the post says Apply by July 1st.
