Weiner Family Summer Fellowship

This prize, given in honor of Gelek Rimpoche, supports funding for summer experiential learning and research (limited to travel, research materials, and living expenses) for an undergraduate student studying Buddhist practice. Due to global health concerns we will now accept applications for Summer 2020 from students hoping to do library research on Buddhist practice without traveling abroad. Preference will be given to a student with strong coursework in religious studies and Asian religions.

For more information contact the chair of the fellowship committee Prof. Jane-Marie Law.

Complete proposals should include:

• a description of proposed praxis to be studied
• one letter of reference from a faculty member
• a budget

Students should submit proposals to Ayla Cline, undergraduate coordinator for religious studies. Submit your proposal by email.

A report summarizing your trip or research should be submitted to Ayla Cline, following your summer travel or research. We also welcome any photos that you have taken while traveling.
