Massachusetts Historical Society Short-term Fellowships carry a stipend of $2,000 to support four or more weeks of research in the MHS collections sometime between July 1, 2018, and June 30, 2019. More than twenty awards will be made. Short-term fellowships are open to independent scholars, advanced graduate students, and holders of the Ph.D. or the equivalent.
We are a panel of two advanced doctoral students in history looking for a third to complete our panel for AHA 2019. We hope to find an individual with interests in immigration, border/boundary making, violence, and imperialism. In regards to methods, we seek an individual who considers the place of migrant agency and whose project expands beyond the US. Please email us at the earliest. We look forward to hearing from you.
