Doctoral Fellowships

The program will attempt to find part-time positions (half-time, approximately 20 hours/week) for students who need funding to help defray living expenses during the first two years of the program. Typically these are teaching, clinical and/or research positions related to their prior clinical specialties.  The admission application requires each candidate to provide a written statement that describes his/her areas of clinical expertise and experience. In order to qualify for these positions, students must have a current license to practice their rehabilitation profession in Massachusetts. The salary associated with the fellowship will be commensurate with what the Institution would typically pay for an individual with the prior clinical experience and other qualifications of the fellow. The program does not guarantee that it can provide such positions to all students accepted into the program.
