The Ford Foundation Diversity Fellowships attempt to increase diversity in college and university-level teaching while maximizing the educational benefits of diversity. Each year, the Ford Foundation offers approximately 60 predoctoral fellowships($20,000 per year for up to three years), 35 dissertation fellowships($21,000 for one year), and 20 postdoctoral fellowships($40,000 for one year).
Fellowships are awarded to students who demonstrate excellence, commitment to diversity, and the desire to teach at the college or university level.

They must be enrolled or plan to enroll in an eligible research-based program leading to a Ph.D or Sc.D at a US institution and must not have previously earned a doctoral degree.
