About This Scholarship

AMS Graduate Fellowships refer to the fellowship programs offered by the American Mathematical Society (AMS) to support graduate students pursuing advanced studies in mathematics. The AMS is a professional society dedicated to advancing mathematical research, education, and scholarship.

The AMS Graduate Fellowship is a highly competitive fellowship that provides funding for the first year of graduate study in mathematics at a U.S. or Canadian university. Recipients of this fellowship receive financial support, mentoring, and opportunities to attend conferences and network with other mathematicians.

The AMS-Simons Travel Grants provide funding to graduate students to attend mathematical conferences, workshops, and research events. These grants aim to support students’ participation in scholarly activities and promote collaboration and networking within the mathematical community.
