About the fellowship
The Society for the Anthropology of Europe and the Council on European Studies jointly sponsor a Pre-dissertation fellowship in anthropology.
Doctoral candidates in anthropology at U.S. and Canadian
universities are eligible to apply. The fellowship supports short-term
(two to three months) independent research in Europe for the purpose of
testing the feasibility and research design of a projected doctoral
dissertation in the social/cultural anthropology of contemporary
Europe. The typical grantee is a second or third-year graduate student
who has, or is close to, completing course work and/or Ph.D. qualifying
exams, but who has neither fully formulated nor defended a dissertation
prospectus.
The fellowship carries a stipend of $4,000. Funds may not be used for
language courses or instruction at a European university, or to
supplement a comparable or larger fellowship for research in Europe.
The deadline for the next fellowship competition will be announced in
the Fall 2008. Proposals will be reviewed by a committee appointed
jointly by the Society for the Anthropology of Europe and the Council
for European Studies. The grantee will be expected to send a report to
both organizations.
