The EWC Graduate Degree Fellowship (GDF) provides master’s and doctoral funding for graduate students from Asia, the Pacific, and the United States to participate in educational, cultural, and residential community building, and leadership development programs at the EWC while pursuing graduate study at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa (UHM). Undertaking degree studies at the UHM through an EWC fellowship is not merely about receiving a financial aid scholarship. Since the basic purpose of the EWC is to build a sense of the Asia Pacific community and prepare for future leadership roles, EWC graduate student fellows live together and interact with each other in both intellectual and social activities. They are from the very outset an identifiable group committed to the notion of building an Asia Pacific community. Through team-building activities, leadership development projects and internships, learning about the Asia Pacific region, cultural exchange, educational enrichment gatherings, community service, and service learning projects, EWC Graduate Degree Fellows establish friendships and lifelong ties to a network of people committed to positive change in the Asia Pacific region.
The EWC Graduate Degree Fellowship covers the cost of general tuition and fees for UHM graduate programs, books, housing in an EWC dormitory, and partial funding toward meals, health insurance, and incidental expenses. Additional funding for field study and conference presentations is offered on a competitive basis during the fellow’s period of study.
