Subject: Social Science Research Council's International Dissertation Research Fellowship 

 

The Social Science Research Council's (http://www.ssrc.org/) International 
Dissertation Research Fellowship program supports distinguished graduate 
students in the humanities and social sciences conducting dissertation 
research outside the United States. Seventy-five fellowships will be 
awarded in 2008 with funds provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation
(http://www.mellon.org/).
 
The IDRF program is committed to scholarship that advances knowledge 
about non-U.S. cultures and societies grounded in empirical and 
site-specific research (involving fieldwork, research in  archival or 
manuscript collections, or quantitative data collection). The program 
promotes research that is situated in a specific discipline and 
geographical region and is engaged with interdisciplinary and 
cross-regional perspectives.
 
Fellowships will provide support for nine to twelve months of dissertation 
research. Individual awards will be approximately $20,000. No awards will 
be made for proposals requiring less than nine months of on-site research. 
The 2008 IDRF fellowship must be held for a single continuous period 
within the eighteen months between July 2008 and December 2009.
