Support the Graduate School Dean's Fund for Excellence

Help the Graduate School expand and strengthen graduate student and postdoctoral scholar resources and services.

We are seeking support for our mission to empower a diverse community of graduate students through professional and personal development. Join us on Stony Brook University’s Giving Day to demonstrate your commitment to advancing graduate education.

Our graduate students are on a mission to pursue big ideas and solve urgent challenges. Participating in fellowships allows them to focus on their work and provides insight into research topics across disciplines.

The Graduate School currently provides fellowships to doctoral students to complete their dissertations in order to support their research and access to necessary resources. Stony Brook University’s reputation as a research institution is directly connected to the work of doctoral students and how they represent the institution in their respective fields. As Stony Brook continues to earn recognition for involvement in critical research and technological innovations, it is important to maintain and improve funding sources through external donations.

Your gift to the Graduate School Dean’s Fund for Excellence will support their innovations.

Graduate students who have received similar awards in the past have expressed that the additional funding significantly improved their ability to accomplish their goals and succeed.
