The Graduate Dean's Travel Grants for Doctoral Field Research are available to contribute to the support of field research that is central to the doctoral dissertation and that must be carried out at a considerable distance from Queen's University. Applications for field research undertaken in Ontario have also been approved for locations in remote areas or when the nature of the fieldwork requires the student to be away for long periods of time. Applications to attend conferences, workshops or courses will not be supported under this program. The maximum single award is $3000 and the maximum that a student may receive during the doctoral program is $3000. However, students should realize that this is a maximum and since the intent is to contribute towards the costs of travel, the Committee may decide to make contributions of less than $3000.

NOTE: The School of Graduate Studies has designated funds for four (4) Graduate Dean's Travel Grants for Doctoral Field Research in support of Indigenous research. Applicants must check the applicable box in the application to be considered for this opportunity.  All other terms and conditions of the competition and the funding remain the same.  Note that a student may hold either the grant for Indigenous research, or the standard grant, but not both.

Applications are assessed on the basis of academic merit, on the centrality of the fieldwork to the thesis research, the coherence of the proposal, financial need and the departmental ranking.

Eligibility Requirements:

  • Any student who plans to travel for research purposes, any time between November 1, 2020 and October 31, 2021, is eligible to apply to this competition
  • Students must complete their Comprehensive (Candidacy) Examination requirement before taking up the Graduate Dean's Doctoral Field Travel Award. So, any student planning to complete their comprehensive examinations between September 1, 2020 and August 31, 2021, is therefore eligible to apply to this competition
  • Students must take up their award within 12 months of being notified of receipt of the award
  • Students must be registered full time in their Doctoral program during the tenure of the award
