Description:

The Department of French and Italian of the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign invites applications to several merit-based, 4- to 6-year
fellowships in French, including French Linguistics and French Language
Learning.

The screening of applications for fellowships and other forms of financial aid
at the M.A. and Ph.D. level will start on December 22, 2017. Visit
http://www.frit.illinois.edu/graduate/french/apply/ for more information.

Graduate students in French can also obtain Ph.D. Concentrations in Romance
Linguistics and in Second Language Acquisition and Teacher Education (SLATE),
and can pursue graduate minors in other area studies, such as cinema, gender,
and immigration. Thanks to the rigorous training and individual mentoring of
all our graduate students, we have an excellent job placement rate for
students who sought employment in the U.S. and around the world.

All admitted students receive some form of financial aid. Students teach three
courses per year to train in teaching and pedagogy while earning a stipend for
nine months that allows them to live comfortably in Champaign-Urbana. In
addition, the department offers summer fellowships, support for conference
travel, opportunities to study in Europe and Quebec, and release time for
students focusing on their research. Highly qualified students can receive
prestigious School and Campus fellowships as well as external fellowships and
grants.

This year we offer additional financial incentives to all applicants admitted
in our programs.
