*2016–2017 Long-term Predoctoral  Fellowships*

*Center for Native American and Indigenous Research (CNAIR)*

*American Philosophical Society Library*



The American Philosophical Society Library in Philadelphia seeks applicants
for a one-year, residential fellowship to assist in the completion of
doctoral dissertation research. Research projects must pertain to Native
American history, anthropology, linguistics, cultural revitalization, and
related fields.

This 12-month fellowship is intended for an advanced Ph.D. student working
toward the completion of the dissertation. The caliber of the project, and
evidence that the project will be completed in a timely manner, are the two
most important criteria for selection. The selection committee will also
take into consideration the need to be at the APS Library and other
research institutions in the Philadelphia area.

A stipend of $25,000 for twelve months will be awarded to the successful
applicant, who will also have an affiliation with the APS Library’s Center
for Native American and Indigenous Research.

Applicants will submit:

   - C.V.,
   - Dissertation proposal,
   - A sample chapter from their dissertation not to exceed 25 double-space
   pages,
   - A cover letter that discusses the current status of the dissertation
   and description of the work proposed to be completed on the fellowship, and
   - Contact information for three people who will submit confidential
   letters of reference.

Full details are available at the application webpage
<http://www.amphilsoc.org/library/fellowships/long-term-pre-docs>. All
application materials will be submitted online.

*Deadline: January 15, 2016*. Notifications will be sent in April 2016.
Visit the application webpage for all details pertaining to the fellowship
and its conditions.

*Long-Term fellowships are also available in Early American history and in
the history of science. Applicants to the long-term fellowship whose work
may overlap in these fields are encouraged to apply to these programs as
well. Please visit **APS Library Fellowships
