P.D. Soros Fellowship for New Americans

Director Craig Harwood will be visiting campus to discuss The Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowships for New Americans, which honors the contributions of immigrants and children of immigrants to the United States. Each year, the program invests in the graduate education of 30 New Americans—immigrants and children of immigrants—who are poised to make significant contributions to US society, culture or their academic field. Each Fellow receives up to $90,000 in financial support over two years, and they join a lifelong community of New American Fellows, including 2016 Fellow Lindsey Osimiri (pictured here) who is a student in the bioengineering PhD program, which is granted jointly by Berkeley and UCSF.
