The Communication Ph.D. Pipeline Program (CP3) is a 9-month, competitive academic fellowship designed to prepare Black/African American students for a Ph.D. in communication and, ultimately, a career in academia. Fellows receive tailored support through assigned peer and faculty mentors, access to at-large mentors, participation in workshops, and funded travel to the National Communication Association conference and a writing retreat at the University of Miami. The program is funded by the National Communication Association, the Waterhouse Family Institute (WFI), the University of Miami (UM), and the University of Cincinnati (UC).
