and disciplines relating to the history of America and the Atlantic world

individuals who have completed their formal professional training.
Consequently, degree candidates and individuals seeking support for work in
pursuit of a degree are not eligible to hold NEH-supported fellowships.
Advanced degree candidates must have completed all requirements, except for
the actual conferral of the degree, by the application deadline, November 1,
2019.  Foreign nationals are not eligible to apply unless they have lived in
the United States for the three years immediately preceding the application
deadline.  NEH fellowships are tenable for four to nine months. The stipend
is $5,000 per month.

finance, technology, manufacturing, agriculture, internal improvements,
economic policy making and other topics. Applicants may be citizens of any
country, and they must hold a Ph.D. by September 1, 2020.  The stipend is
$40,000 for the academic year, or if the award is divided between two
scholars, $20,000 per semester.

 

Senior scholars are particularly encouraged to apply. The Library Company’s
Cassatt House fellows’ residence offers rooms at reasonable rates, along
