Rockefeller Foundation Offers
Fellowships to Promote New Work in the Humanities -In 2004-2005,
Rockefeller Resident Fellowships in the Humanities will be offered at
twenty-one host instsitutions selected for their potential to promote
new work in the humanities. Host institutions, which include academic
departments, interdisciplinary programs, museums, research libraries,
and community cultural centers, encourage interaction between the visiting
fellows and their own scholarly communities, and make libraries, special
collections, and other facilities/resources available to specialized
areas of research.
The fellowships are meant to serve scholars who are testing disciplinary
boundaries or moving into newer fields of inquiry within the humanities.
Although the majority of the fellow's time will be spent pursuing his/her
own research toward publication, the residency may involve participation
in seminars, conferences, or other collaborative activities within the
host program. Awards may not be used for the completion of graduate studies,
for advanced training, or for writing poetry or fiction.
Eligibility requirements, stipends, application procedures, and
deadlines are available directly from the host institution.
