The Bernard D. and Louise C. Rostker IVMF Dissertation Research Fund supports dissertation research on veteran-and military family-related topics to be conducted by Syracuse University Ph.D. candidates through the D’Aniello Institute for Veterans and Military Families.

The fund application is open to Syracuse University doctoral candidates from all Syracuse schools and colleges and the fund will support one or more Syracuse University Ph.D. candidate(s) doing dissertation research on veteran and/or military family-related topics.

Bernard and Louise Rostker are recipients of advanced degrees from Syracuse University. Bernard received a master’s degree and Ph.D. in Economics and Louise earned a master’s degree in Social Work. Through the IVMF Dissertation Research fund, the Rostkers hope to give graduate students a boost during a critical time in their lives as they reach their research goals and set out into their careers.
