The Annette Kade Graduate Fellowship funds 3-month research exchanges: graduate students at French and German institutions study at AMNH, and AMNH graduate students study in France and Germany.
Since 2002, the Annette Kade Fellowship Program has provided the opportunity for graduate students of any nationality who are enrolled at French and German institutions to study at the Museum for 3 months, and for American Museum of Natural History graduate students to study at institutions across France and Germany for 3 months.
With the support of the Annette Kade Charitable Trust Fund, an extraordinary array of talented international students have taken advantage of the Museum’s cutting-edge facilities and technology, world-class collections and the expertise of our curatorial faculty and scientific staff. At the same time, graduate students at the Museum have gained invaluable experience working with expert scientists at top institutions abroad. The Annette Kade Fellowship Program strengthens the Museum’s institutional partnerships and helps to build a better trained and more interactive international scientific community.
