This is a reminder that the Woodrow Wilson International Center for
Scholars is currently accepting applications for its 2006-2007 fellowship
competition. The application deadline is October 1, 2005. Historians are
encouraged to apply. Eight historians are among the 23 fellows recently
selected for 2005-2006 fellowships.
The Center offers residential fellowships for the entire U.S. academic year
(September through May), or for a minimum of four months during the academic
year, to individuals in the social sciences and humanities who submit
outstanding project proposals on a broad range of national and/or
international issues. Fellows are selected through a multi-level peer review
process. Proposed topics should relate to key public policy challenges or
provide the historical and/or cultural framework to illumine policy issues
of contemporary importance.
Fellows are provided with a stipend (includes a
round-trip transportation allowance), part-time research assistance, and,
through the assistance of professional librarians, access to the Library of
Congress. Fellows work from private offices at the Woodrow Wilson
International Center for Scholars in Washington, DC.
Eligibility: For academic applicants, eligibility is limited to the postdoctoral level and, normally, to applicants with publications beyond the Ph.D. dissertation.
For other applicants, an equivalent level of professional achievement is
expected. Applications from any country are welcome. All applicants should
have a very good command of spoken English. The Center seeks a diverse
group of Fellows and encourages applications from women and minorities.
