The Udall Foundation regrets that we are unable to offer the Ph.D. Fellowship in 2012. We hope to be
able to offer the Fellowship again in 2013. These pages are currently for information only.

environmental public policy and/or environmental conflict resolution. Previous fellows' fields of study include political
science; economics; government; anthropology; environmental science, policy and management; ecology; environmental justice;

Applicants must be enrolled at a U.S. institution of higher education; U.S. citizens attending universities outside the
U.S. are not eligible;
- The primary focus of dissertation research should be U.S. environmental policy or environmental conflict resolution;
