Purpose: The Dolores Zohrab Liebmann Fellowship is for funding advanced education and graduate study grants as well as publications focusing on Armenian studies, and independent research or study projects which must be carried out entirely in the United States of America. The primary purpose is to attract and support students with outstanding character and ability who hold promise for achievement and distinction in their chosen fields of study. In the case of undergraduate liberal arts colleges, students in their senior year are eligible to apply for a fellowship to fund their future graduate work. The program of study need not be limited to Armenian studies, and applicants can be of any national descent.
