Prizes for Undergraduate Excellence

Each year, the Program in Portuguese and Brazilian Studies and the Kellogg Institute award the George Monteiro Prize for the best two essays written in Portuguese by undergraduate students on a subject related to the Lusophone world. Papers must have been submitted as a requirement to one of the courses offered in the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures. Each award carries a monetary value of $500 and the recipients are recognized at the Kellogg Senior Awards Reception and at the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures Reception during Commencement Week. The prize recognizes the outstanding contributions of George Monteiro, Professor Emeritus of English and of Portuguese and Brazilian Studies at Brown University.

The Pessoa Grant, named for Portuguese poet and writer Fernando Pessoa, provides up to $4,000 to support a student's advanced language study in Portuguese for study undertaken in Portugal.
