Computer science and cybersecurity students
All students admitted to the Computer Science and Cybersecurity PhD programs receive a 5-year scholarship. This takes two forms: a 5-year graduate assistantship, or a 1-year graduate fellowship with a 4-year graduate assistantship. Graduate assistants are expected to work 20 hours per week teaching or conducting research. Graduate fellows are expected to engage in research, with no teaching responsibilities. Students are taxed on the income they receive from the stipend, but not on the tuition remission.
These scholarships provide tuition remission of up to 12 credit hours each fall and spring term, which accommodates a full-time course load. The cost of individual graduate student health insurance is also covered 100 percent.
Graduate assistants and fellows who maintain full-time enrollment and satisfactory academic progress receive a stipend, available for up to five years.

Personal health informatics students
All students in the Personal Health Informatics program are eligible for full financial support including tuition remission and a monthly stipend for eight months of the year. During the summer, students are eligible to work on research projects and receive a monthly stipend for the four summer months. The stipend is designed to cover cost of living, housing, and university health insurance. Students are taxed on the income they receive from the stipend, but not on the tuition remission.
Funding is based on available grants and faculty with funded research projects. If you have your own source of funding, such as an individual scholarship or an NSF fellowship, it should be indicated on your application.
If you remain in good academic standing overall and with your primary advisor, your funding will likely remain throughout your program.
Prospective students should base their applications on what they most want to do for a PhD in personal health informatics. You should use our website’s resources to learn more about projects and faculty members whose work fits their strengths and interests, regardless of which projects are most likely to have funding.
