===Title IV===

Title IV provides funding for graduate fellowships in order to increase the number of graduate-level professionals and university professors. Priority was given to students who stated an interest in becoming a professor. However, certain fields (such as folklore) were specifically exempted from these fellowships.<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Dorson|first1=Richard|title=Folklore and the National Defense Education Act|journal=The Journal of American Folklore|year=1962|volume=75|issue=296|pages=160–164|doi=10.2307/538177|jstor=538177}}</ref> Title IV was also one of the only two federal programs (along with Title VI of the NDEA) in existence at the time that gave any funding to the humanities.
