IHS GRADUATE SABBATICAL GRANTS (UP TO $20,000) AT GEORGE MASON UNIVERSITY, USA

Leave a comment

LOCATION: USA

Graduate Sabbatical Grants provide up to $20,000 to PhD candidates (ABD) and postdoctoral fellows to buy out teaching or research responsibilities for a semester so that they can complete vital work toward the completion of their degrees, publications, or other milestones in their early academic careers. These highly competitive grants can be renewed for grantees who show exceptional progress. Summer fellowships for graduate students are available

ELIGIBILITY:

Applicants must be enrolled as full-time PhD students who have advanced to candidacy, or currently hold a postdoctoral fellowship

Previous applicants and winners are welcome to apply

Prior participation in IHS programs is not required

The fellowship is open to students at any university, and international students are eligible; however, priority is given to applicants at top research institutions

Awardees are expected to complete a significant milestone in their early academic career—examples include finishing large portions of a dissertation, completing and submitting material for publication, or producing work and presenting at a major conference.

Awardees will be asked to provide updates on significant milestones during the course of the sabbatical and to inform IHS about other relevant research progress.

These grants are highly competitive, and applicants who do not receive a sabbatical offer may still be invited to receive a Humane Studies Fellowship.

Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. Applicants will be notified of their award decision within eight weeks of submission.

BENEFIT:

Graduate Sabbatical Grants provide up to $20,000 to PhD candidates (ABD) and postdoctoral fellows
