THE JORGE PAULO LEMANN FELLOWSHIPS FOR RESEARCH IN BRAZIL

The Jorge Paulo Lemann Fellowships support:

1. Current Harvard Kenneth C. Griffin Graduate School of Arts and Sciences masters and Ph.D. candidates from Brazil whose work primarily focuses on Brazil and who need to conduct research in Brazil.
2. Research for current Harvard doctoral students from Brazil who are studying in the social, physical, life or medical sciences, and whose research requires fieldwork in Brazil.

Applicants must have completed at least one full year of graduate study at the time of their application. Research fellowships are awarded for one semester or an academic year. The fellowships are made possible by the generosity of Jorge Paulo Lemann.
