PhD Programs
NYU Abu Dhabi offers Global PhD Student Fellowships in collaboration with the NYU Graduate School of Arts and Science and NYU Tandon School of Engineering.
Each program offers a unique opportunity to engage in a global setting, where students will begin their coursework in New York and complete their research in Abu Dhabi. Fellowships provide competitive compensation packages, covering tuition costs, housing in Abu Dhabi, and providing a monthly stipend, as well as additional support for relocation and research start-up costs.
Global PhD students complete the program coursework in New York City (1-2 years) before coming to NYUAD to complete their research and thesis. Applications for PhD programs open in October for the following fall intake.
Global PhD Student Fellowships
There is no separate application for the NYUAD Global PhD Student Fellowship. Interested students should indicate their preference for conducting research at NYUAD in their application.
