CENFAD Seeks Master’s Applicants Interested in Force and Diplomacy

Ryan Langton Discussion

Thanks to the generosity of Todd Davis (Temple History PHD), the Center for the Study of Force and Diplomacy (CENFAD) funds a yearly CENFAD Emerging Scholar Graduate Award, a scholarship for applicants to the Temple University MA Program in History. The purposes of the award are to recruit and support MA-level students interested in diplomatic and military history and to do so especially among underrepresented candidates, including women.

Each year, one awardee receives $12,000 in tuition remission over a two-year period (covering about one 3-credit course per semester at in-state rates). If the awardee’s GPA is below a 3.5 after his/her first year of studies, second-year funding is subject to review.

The competition is now open for the 2023-2024 academic year, and the deadline to apply to the Temple MA Program in History is February 15, 2023. There is no application procedure. All students admitted to the MA program, including the MA Concentration in Public History, will automatically be considered.
