About this program
The Richard Gilder Graduate School at the American Museum of Natural History administers a suite of funded programs—including RGGS Comparative Biology Ph.D. fellowships (and partner-institution graduate fellowships), Annette Kade international exchange fellowships, multiple postdoctoral fellowships (RGGS, Frank M. Chapman, AMNH‑Bard), short-term research grants, and NSF-supported REU undergraduate internships—supporting research in comparative biology, anthropology, invertebrate and vertebrate zoology, paleontology, astrophysics, and Earth and planetary sciences. These awards provide discipline-specific training and access to the Museum’s collections, laboratories, mentorship, and research resources. Eligibility depends on the award type: Ph.D. fellowships target enrolled or prospective doctoral students (including RGGS and partner programs), postdoctoral fellowships require a Ph.D. and early-career status, grants target advanced students and postdoctoral trainees/researchers, and REU positions are for qualified undergraduates; applicants should review individual program announcements and deadlines (e.g., Fall 2026 cycle).
