The George Washington University’s Institute for European, Russian and
Eurasian Studies (IERES) is pleased to announce a call for applications for
the Mellon Pre-doctoral Fellowship in Cold War/Post-1945 International
History for 2013-2014. Applicants need to have completed archival research
for their dissertation in two or more countries and be at the final writing
stage of their dissertation at an American university. The Fellow must be
in residence at IERES from September 2013 through June 2014 and will be
provided with an office and computer. The Fellow will also help the IERES
Director administer several workshops that train Ph.D. candidates to
conduct archival research. The award will offer support in the amount of
$25,000 per year, plus benefits.
Interested applicants should submit an 8-10 page proposal, curriculum
vitae, and a letter of recommendation from a member of your dissertation
committee. Please also submit a cover letter that clearly addresses your
experience with archival research and any previous administrative
responsibilities. All applications are reviewed by a GWU faculty panel that
rewards clarity of argument and method as well as the originality of the
research and the argument.
Deadline for all fellowship applications is January 15, 2013.
