Invitation to Apply to the Colman Leadership Program for PhD Students

The Colman Leadership Program seeks to enroll 20-24 students every January and June for an intensive four-day immersion program focused on providing PhD* students with skills and knowledge that will support their development as leaders in graduate school and beyond.

The program has the capacity to serve a broader base of students. Consequently, consideration will be given to applications from PhD* students from all graduate fields and backgrounds (domestic and international). However, Graduate School Deans Scholars with the following fellowships and affiliations will receive priority consideration for enrollment in the program:

• Cornell Colman Fellowship
• Cornell Sloan Fellowship
• Cornell GEM Fellowship
• Deans Excellence Fellowship
• SUNY Diversity Fellowship
• McNair Graduate Fellowship
• Mellon Mays Graduate Fellowship
• Cornell IMSD Fellowship
• Cornell GEM PhD Fellowship
• Provost Diversity Fellowship
• Bouchet Honor Society

(*MFA students are also invited to apply, given that the MFA is a terminal degree and the degree commonly held by some faculty in fields granting this degree.)
