All students in the MFA and PhD programs are fully funded, and students in our MA and MAED programs are awarded assistantships and tuition wavers on a competitive basis. Assistantships are renewed on an annual basis and a yearly assistantship application is required of all incoming and returning students. Funding is also available from various sources to offset the cost of materials and travel related to graduate research.

Graduate Assistantships

Departmental Assistantships

Applicants to all Dodd Graduate programs will be automatically considered for departmental assistantships, which typically involve grading, teaching, working in the Art library, or assisting with the operations of the Dodd galleries. No separate application is required.

Ideas for Creative Exploration (ICE)

In addition to departmental assistantships, prospective students are encouraged to apply for assistantships in interdisciplinary arts research through ICE. These assistantships are available to students in art, music, theatre, and film studies and are awarded on a competitive basis following departmental nomination. You must submit a separate ICE application and express your interest in this award when you apply for admission to the School of Art. 

Public Service and Outreach (PSO) Graduate Assistantship Program

Prospective Students are also encouraged to review assistantship opportunities offered via the Public Service and Outreach program in affiliation with various units on campus including the Botanical Gardens and the Archway Partnership. Please see the PSO website   for more information.

Graduate School Fellowships and Scholarships

The Graduate School offers several fellowships and scholarships, which are described in detail on their website. Applicants must be nominated by their home department and routed through the Dodd Graduate Office.

Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs Assistantships

The Office of Vice President for Student Affairs (OVPSA) coordinates the selection process for graduate assistantships in Student Affairs and in offices of our campus partners (for 2019, Career Services and the Office of Service Learning will be selecting graduate students through this process as well). All students enrolled in or applying to a graduate degree program offered at the University of Georgia are eligible to apply for graduate assistantships through this process.

 


Graduate Research and Travel Support

Domestic Travel Support

Travel Grants are available from the Graduate School to offset the cost of participating in conferences and exhibitions in the continental United States. 

International Travel Support

International travel grants to offset the cost of traveling to conferences are available from the Vice President of Research.

The Willson Center Graduate Research Award

The Willson Center Graduate Research Award provides support toward research related expenses for arts and humanities projects that are essential components of a graduate degree program. Application is open to any humanities and arts graduate student registered for an advanced degree.

Art History Support Fund

The Art History area reviews applications from graduate students who wish to travel for the purpose of conducting or presenting research. A call for applications is issued twice annually by the Art History Area Chair.

Graduate Office Support Fund

The Dodd Graduate Office reviews requests for research-related funds on a rolling basis. Please contact Dr. Isabelle Loring Wallace, Associate Director of Research and Graduate Studies with any questions.
