Dissertation Proposal Development Fellowship

Dissertation Proposal Development Fellowship (DPDF) Program.

Deadline: January 28th, 2011

Description from SSRC's webpage:
"The Dissertation Proposal Development Fellowship (DPDF) Program assists graduate students in preparing dissertation and funding proposals for research that will contribute to the development of interdisciplinary fields in the humanities and social sciences. We sponsor training workshops and summer research on fields that are selected through annual competitions. Pairs of senior faculty propose the fields and design the spring and fall training workshops. Students apply to participate in the workshops and carry out related summer research. Now in its fifth year, the program annually offers training in five fields to 60 graduate students. For a second year in a row, the 2011 fellowship will offer an international research field, which will pair six U.S.-based graduate students with six students pursuing PhDs in French universities."
