Support for graduate students' research may come from the resources available for their major professor's research program. Academic departments and graduate IDIS programs may also have resources to support the research of graduate students. 

In addition, the Purdue University Graduate School helps graduate students search for research funding. The Graduate School offers a Funding Database that enables current or prospective students to search for funding opportunities using keywords or actual award names. Types of funding include grants, employment, and loans. Visit Graduate School Funding Info for Students to get other information about where to look for funding, how to prepare applications, and how to evaluate an offer of funding.

The Graduate School Fellowship Manual is a guide for everyone who is involved in the fellowship process. The manual contains policies, guidelines, award provisions, and more. The Graduate School Fellowship Office (fellowships@purdue.edu or 765-494-2598) can also answer questions about fellowships.
