School of Education Scholarships
If you wish to be considered for scholarships awarded by the School of Education, you must complete a separate School of Education Graduate Scholarship Application. Graduate applicants to the School of Education are not automatically considered for graduate scholarships and must complete the School of Education scholarship application in addition to the admission application.
Warren Fellowship for Future Educators
The School of Education, in conjunction with the Warren Fellowship for Future Educators and the Holocaust Museum Houston, has launched a fellowship program called The Holocaust: Lessons for the Classroom.
The fellowship is designed to help future teachers bring the lessons of the Holocaust into the classroom. The program has openings for 20 students, who must be enrolled in a School of Education school placement during the 2009 spring semester.
The students will take part in an intensive six-day institute (in January) at the Holocaust Museum Houston in Houston, Texas. Through a series of lectures and discussions, nationally recognized Holocaust scholars, university faculty and Holocaust survivors will provide the historical and pedagogical context for understanding the Holocaust and its implications for contemporary society.
The Warren Fellowship for Future Teachers was made possible by a gift from Holocaust survivor Naomi Warren and her family. For more information or to apply for the fellowship, click here.
