The Institute of Gender, Race, Sexuality and Social Justice at the
University of British Columbia is offering up to three doctoral fellowships
on issues connected to inequality, social change, and justice. View an
informative poster online: http://bit.ly/WNSDOq .

Gender, race, sexuality and social justice (GRSJ) is an exciting
interdisciplinary field of study where international scholars do
groundbreaking academic work related to inequality and social change.

The UBC 4YF Doctoral Fellowships are competitively offered to the most
promising candidates whose work have the potential to advance research and
understanding in social justice.

The Institute for Gender, Race, Sexuality and Social Justice is home to
more than 90 faculty and faculty associates whose expertise includes gender
studies, critical race studies, critical studies in sexuality, decolonizing
and post-colonial methodologies, cultural studies, history and literature,
transgender studies, intersectional issues in health, and feminist legal
studies. See faculty and faculty associates, http://grsj.arts.ubc.ca/people

Graduate students may participate in Social Justice @ UBC Thematic
Research Networks, which explore themes including critical race and ethnic
studies, critical nature and justice studies and indigenous pedagogies.
(See Thematic Research Networks,

To be eligible, students must fulfill all admission requirements for the
doctoral program, have a master's in gender, race, sexuality and social
justice or related field (or be willing to take extra courses to gain such
preparation), and be committed to the pursuit of a PhD. Applicants
interested in this opportunity are encouraged to contact faculty with
similar interests early in the application cycle to hone research questions
and interests. Applicants are also expected to apply for any other funding
for which they may be eligible (e.g. SSHRC).

Be a part of an academic program that is leading the edge of social change.
