Recruitment

The Madison and Lila Self Graduate Fellowship’s main recruitment goal is to plan and implement activities for recruiting new Fellows in collaboration with colleagues, graduate studies, and the 21 eligible University of Kansas Ph.D. programs. The Recruitment Coordinator is responsible for all recruitment responsibilities and travels regionally and nationally to recruit at meetings and colleges/universities. The Recruitment Coordinator seeks to collaborate with academic departments in order to identify prospective students who possess the potential and motivation to make a significant contribution to their chosen profession and society. 

Our office is also willing to present information about the Self Graduate Fellowship, whether you are training department recruiters/ambassadors or planning prospective student events.  Please contact the Recruitment Coordinator, Daniel Rivera at drivera1@ku.edu for more information or to schedule a presentation.
