Opportunity Information: Apply for 693JJ322NF5201 2023
The Dwight David Eisenhower Transportation Fellowship Program (DDETFP) Graduate Fellowship is a discretionary federal grant opportunity run by the U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). It is designed to financially support individual students who are pursuing advanced graduate education in transportation-related fields, specifically at the master's or doctoral level. At its core, the program functions as a talent-development pipeline for the U.S. transportation sector, using fellowship funding to help promising students obtain the training and credentials needed to contribute to transportation research, policy, planning, engineering, and other related professional areas.
The fellowship has three main goals that frame what the government is trying to accomplish with this funding. First, it aims to attract the nation's brightest minds into transportation, recognizing that the field depends on a steady influx of high-caliber students and researchers. Second, it seeks to enhance the careers of existing or emerging transportation professionals by encouraging them to pursue advanced degrees, which can deepen technical expertise and expand leadership potential. Third, it is intended to bring and retain top talent in the U.S. transportation industry, supporting long-term workforce strength and ensuring that advanced knowledge and innovation remain within the domestic transportation ecosystem.
In the published opportunity information, the funding opportunity title is listed as the Dwight David Eisenhower Transportation Fellowship Program (DDETFP) Graduate Fellowship, with funding opportunity number 693JJ322NF5201 and a 2023 designation. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the activity category is education. The associated CFDA number is 20.215. Eligibility is limited to individuals, meaning applications are submitted by students rather than universities, nonprofits, or local governments. The opportunity was created on February 21, 2023, and the original closing date was April 7, 2023, indicating a time-limited application window for that cycle.
From a funding standpoint, the award ceiling is listed as $35,500, which indicates the maximum amount that may be awarded per fellowship under this posting. The agency anticipated making about 100 awards, suggesting a relatively sizable cohort and a program structure that supports many recipients nationwide. While the brief listing does not spell out allowable cost categories in detail, this type of graduate fellowship funding is generally oriented toward supporting the costs of graduate study and related educational or research expenses within an approved transportation-focused program of study.
Finally, the posting notes that the full Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), attachments, and specific application instructions are located under a "RELATED DOCUMENTS" tab, and that applications are submitted through TFICS. In practical terms, that means the short summary is not the complete rulebook; the detailed requirements, required forms, evaluation criteria, and step-by-step submission instructions are contained in the official NOFO and accompanying documents, and applicants are expected to follow those instructions precisely when applying through the Transportation Fellowship Information and Communication System (TFICS).Apply for 693JJ322NF5201 2023
