Office of the Vice Provost for Graduate Education
VPGE works collaboratively across Stanford to ensure that graduate students have the best possible educational experience.
We help them engage with the world-class faculty and support their scholarship, expanding the body of knowledge and benefitting society across a wide range of disciplines.
VPGE manages nine university-wide doctoral fellowship programs, supports admissions and recruitment across all of Stanford’s departments, and curates and interprets graduate academic policies. We ensure that outstanding research and learning opportunities are available to students from all backgrounds and perspectives. We offer targeted support for interdisciplinary research, professional development, and innovative teaching and scholarship within and across graduate degree programs.
