Summer Funding for Graduate Students

With gratitude to generous donors, the Psychology Department typically awards several fellowships that come with stipends of $5,000 to Psychology graduate students to continue their research over the summer. We typically award 5-8 fellowships each summer. The fellowships are described in alphabetical order by donor last names below.

Deborah Greenwald Fellowship

The Deborah Greenwald Fellowship was established in 2012 thanks to a generous gift from Celia Rumsey, AG90, A19P, to benefit graduate students within the Department of Psychology in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. This fellowship recognizes Dr. Debby Greenwald’s teaching and mentoring, and is mentioned in this Tufts Alumni & Friends featured story.

Martin Paczynski Fellowship

This fellowship is available thanks to the generous gift from Hanna Paczynski to Tufts in recognition of Dr. Martin Paczynski (Ph.D. Tufts Psychology) contribution to the field of human cognition. Martin passed away in 2018; he is remembered fondly by friends and colleagues.
