Chancellor's Doctoral Incentive Program Applications Available

CSU, Chancellor’s Doctoral Incentive Program (CDIP) applications are now available online.

The purpose of this program is to increase the number of promising doctoral students who are interested in applying and competing for future CSU instructional faculty positions. The program seeks to accomplish this goal by providing financial aid in the form of loans to doctoral students. If a participant is hired in a CSU instructional faculty position after completion of the doctoral degree, 20 percent of the loan will be forgiven for each year of full-time postdoctoral teaching employment in the CSU.

Those individuals who will be new or continuing full-time students in doctoral programs at accredited universities anywhere in the United States during the 2009/2010 academic year may apply. CDIP is designed as a recruitment incentive program open to all graduate students at accredited institutions who are not probationary or tenured faculty members in the CSU. Lecturers are eligible and encouraged to apply.

The campus deadline for the application package is March 2, 2009. Submit to the School of Graduate, International and Interdisciplinary Studies, SSC 440. For additional information and questions contact Dr. Sharon Barrios at 898-4984.

Aymer J. Hamilton Parking Lot to be Closed

The AJH parking lot, along with the small parking just north of the Bidwell Mansion Visitor Center, could be closed for up to four days during the University’s two week break, Dec. 22 through Jan. 4, to build the structural section related to the Natural History Museum’s loading dock. The contractor is not able to determine the specific days, as the temperature will determine whether the asphalt work can be done.

If you have any questions, the project manager, Dave Kimbrell, can be reached at 864-6308.
