by the Social Science Research Council (http://ssrc.org/) in partnership with
the American Council of Learned Societies, the International Dissertation
Field Research Fellowship program provides support for social scientists and
humanists conducting dissertation field research in all areas and regions of
the world. Up to fifty fellowships will be awarded in the year 2005. Funds
are provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. IDRF awards are designed to
enable doctoral candidates of proven achievement and outstanding potential to
use their knowledge of distinctive cultures, societies, languages, economies,
polities, and histories, in combination with their disciplinary training, to
address issues that transcend their disciplines or area specializations. The
program is open to full-time graduate students in the humanities and social
sciences, regardless of citizenship, enrolled in doctoral programs in the <st1:country-region
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">United States</st1:place></st1:country-region>.
The program invites proposals for field research on all areas or regions of
the world, as well as for research that is comparative, cross-regional, and cross-cultural.
Proposals that identify the <st1:country-region w:st="on">U.S.</st1:country-region>
as a case for comparative inquiry are welcome; however, proposals that
require no substantial research outside the <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">U.S.</st1:place></st1:country-region> are not eligible. Standard
fellowships will provide support for nine to twelve months in the field, plus
travel expenses. Funding will rarely exceed $20,000.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Wenner-Gren Foundation pursues its two major goals - advancing basic research
in anthropology and building an international community of <br>
anthropologists - through several funding programs.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><em><i><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Individual
Research Grants</span></font></i></em><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Description:
Grants for amounts up to $25,000 are available for basic research in all
branches of anthropology. Grants are made to seed innovative approaches and
ideas, to cover specific expenses or phases of a project, and/or to encourage
aid from other funding agencies. The foundation particularly invites projects
employing comparative perspectives or <br>
integrating two or more subfields of anthropology. A small number of awards
is available for projects designed to develop resources for anthropological
research and scholarly exchange.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Budgetary
Guidelines: Grants cover research expenses directly related and essential to
the project (i.e., travel, living expenses during fieldwork, equipment,
supplies, research assistance, and other relevant expenditures). Aid is not
provided for salary and/or fringe benefits of applicant, tuition, non-project
personnel, travel to meetings, institutional overhead, or <br>
institutional support. Low priority is given to dissertation writeup or other
support for writing (except under the Hunt Fellowship), publication
assistance, and film- or video-making (unless inherent to the research
project). Expenses incurred prior to the effective date of an award will not
be covered; budgets should reflect foundation deadlines.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Application
information: A formal application must be submitted. Those interested in
receiving an application can contact the foundation to have the appropriate
forms mailed to them, or (if they know their eligibility) individuals can
download the forms directly from this website. Please note that our
application forms have been revised; forms dated prior to year 2000 cannot be
accepted.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Deadlines:
There are two deadlines each year, May 1st and November 1st. For applications
submitted by the May 1st deadline, funding will be available the following
January 1st. Under the November 1st deadline, funding will be available the
following July 1st. Applicants should meet the most appropriate deadline for
their research plans. Decisions for each <br>
application cycle will be announced six to eight monthes after the deadline
date. Only one application may be submitted during any twelve-month period.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><em><i><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Dissertation
Fieldwork Grants</span></font></i></em> are awarded to individuals to aid
doctoral dissertation or thesis research. Applicants must be enrolled for a
doctoral degree. Application must be made jointly with a thesis advisor or
other scholar who will undertake responsibility for supervising the project.
Awards are contigent upon the applicant's successful completion of all <br>
requirements for the degree other than the dissertation/thesis. Applications
may be submitted before such requirements have been met; however, should an
award be approved, the foundation will at that time request evidence of that
the applicant is "all-but-dissertation/ advanced-to-candidacy".
Qualified students of all nationalities are eligible.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p><em><i><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Post-Ph.D.
Grants</span></font></i></em> are awarded to individual scholars holding the
doctorate or equivalent qualification in anthropology or a related
discipline. Qualified scholars are eligible without regard to nationality or
institutional affiliation. Application for Post-Ph.D. Grants may be made by
the scholar either as an individual or on behalf of an organization. Ph.D.
candidates seeking postdoctoral support should file a Dissertation Fieldwork<o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Grant
application and indicate that support is being requested for postdoctoral
