Description
The John Carter Brown Library will award approximately thirty short- and long-term Research Fellowships for the period June 1, 2011-June 30, 2012. Short-term fellowships are available for two to four months, with a monthly stipend of $2,100. Short-term fellowships are open to foreign nationals or U.S. citizens who are engaged in pre- and postdoctoral, or independent, research. It is mandatory that graduate students pass the preliminary or general examinations before the application deadline and be at the dissertation-writing stage. Long-term fellowships are available for five to ten months, with a monthly stipend of $4,200. Applicants for long-term fellowships are required to have their Ph.D. before January 2011. Research proposals must be suited to the holdings of the John Carter Brown Library. The collection is focused on the history of the Western Hemisphere during the colonial period (1492 to ca. 1825), including all aspects of the European, African, and Native American experience. All fellows must relocate to Providence, Rhode Island, and be in continuous residence at the Library for the entire term of the fellowship. A comfortable residence maintained for research fellows is nearby.
