We are pleased to announce the MSU Westerdahl Fellowship for the Ed.D. Mathematics Education program at Montclair State University.  The MSU Westerdahl Fellowship provides tuition and a $25K/year stipend to exceptional students who wish to pursue full-time doctoral studies in mathematics education.

Our program is intended for students interested in various facets (curricular, pedagogical, psychological, philosophical, etc.) of mathematics education.  In addition to taking coursework, our students work actively with doctoral faculty to refine their research interests throughout their course of study.  Recent graduates of the program have secured employment at four-year universities as mathematics educators, been promoted to leadership positions in their school districts, and pursued research for institutes. 

The doctoral fellowships are for full-time students and involve 9 credits of coursework each semester and 20 hours per week of work on research projects.  The renewable appointments are for September 1st through June 30th and can be renewed each year up to four years.

Students would need to apply formally to the program and indicate that they are interested in the doctoral assistantship.  Once they have been admitted, we will conduct interviews to determine suitability for the fellowship.

Applications for admissions and for the fellowships are being considered through July 15, 2015. 

Students can also contact me at eddmath@mail.montclair.edu or (973) 655-7256 for more information.

 

Thank you,
