Funding-Guggenheim (Harry Frank) Foundation - Dissertation Fellowships; February 1, 2015

Description

OBJECTIVES

Questions that interest the foundation concern

violence and aggression in relation to social change, intergroup

conflict, war, terrorism, crime, and family relationships, among other

subjects. Dissertations with no relevance to understanding human

violence and aggression will not be supported. Priority will also be

given to areas and methodologies not receiving adequate attention and

support from other funding sources.

ELIGIBILITY

These grants are made to Ph.D. candidates who are entering the

dissertation stage of graduate school. Usually, this means that

fieldwork or other research is complete and writing has begun. If

analysis and writing are not far enough along for an applicant to be

confident of completing the dissertation within the year, heor she

should not apply, as the application will probably not be competitive

with those that comply with this timetable. In some disciplines,

particularly experimentalfields, research and writing can reasonably

be expected to be completed within the same year, and in those cases

it is appropriate to apply.

FUNDING

The sponsor anticipates awarding ten or more fellowships of $20,000

each.

Closing Date:

02/01/2015
