Graduate Fellowships Landing Page
Fellowships allow graduate students to follow their academic passions and concentrate on their coursework and research without the burden of debt. When you give to Graduate Fellowships through the Caltech Fund, you empower grad students to freely partner with world-class faculty and to explore, challenge, and discover without interruption or distraction.

A lot of good things have happened to me because of my fellowship to Caltech, so I wanted to make sure that other people had the same advantages. The reason I received a fellowship was because other people donated money to the Institute, so for me it’s a 'pay it back' kind of thing. It enables a lot of really important scientific activity, research, and learning. I’m always curious to see how Caltech is shaping the future in science and engineering.

One of my favorite things about being at Caltech is the scientific freedom and resources to pursue one's interests. There are so many resources available at Caltech that make my projects possible. It’s exciting to be part of something bigger, and make better predictions about the future.
