About This Site

The Duke Graduate School receives emails from various Duke units and external organizations and institutions about funding, career, training, and other opportunities that may be of interest to graduate students. This site is a running collection of those opportunities.

If you have an opportunity you wish to share with Duke graduate students, you can submit it to grad-web@duke.edu for consideration. As general policy, we do not accept submissions from for-profit operations, except for funding or career opportunities (e.g., internships).

The Graduate School posts the information as it was submitted and is not responsible for any inaccuracies. Questions about a specific post should be directed to the organization offering the opportunity, not to The Graduate School.
