Stipend Information

Trainees receive stipends which are taxable by the U.S. Federal government. Trainees will receive a monthly stipend and the amounts will vary depending on the trainee’s degree level, research area, location, and experience. 

Stipends for part-time participants in the Traineeship Program are prorated on the percentage of full-time participation.  Note: FDA is not responsible for personal income taxes. Each Trainee is responsible for their own income taxes.
