Do not postpone action on fellowships or traineeships because some are awarded only to recently admitted graduate students or only to students who have recently passed their preliminary exam.<\/p>\n<p>Smaller fellowships and grants are available from numerous other sources and your major advisory should provide guidance on which are most appropriate for your research program. The principal advantages of these programs are that they allow relative freedom in the graduate program with no service obligations to CSU or to professors who provide funding for students through their own grants.\u00a0 Furthermore, they are often transferable to another institution.<\/p>\n<p>Graduate students may also prepare grant or contract proposals in collaboration with a CSU recognized Principal Investigator. Applications for such awards usually require transcripts and formally written proposals.\u00a0 They are excellent training for students seeking careers in research.\u00a0 Applications for fellowships, traineeships, and information concerning grant proposals are available from the sponsoring agencies, the College of Agricultural Sciences Office, Graduate School, and\/or the Office of Sponsored Programs.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_btn title=&#8221;Back to Graduate Student Resources&#8221; style=&#8221;3d&#8221; color=&#8221;orange&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2F%2Fgraduate%2Fcurrent-student-resources%2F|title:Back%20to%20Graduate%20Student%20Resources%20Page||&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Graduate students, particularly Ph.D. candidates, should take advantage of fellowships, grants, and traineeships available through the University and government agencies.
