NEH Postdoctoral Fellowship

Omohundro Institute of Early American History & Culture, Williamsburg,
VA/USA

https://oieahc.wm.edu/fellowships/neh/announcement/

 

The Omohundro Institute of Early American History & Culture offers a
two-year residential postdoctoral fellowship in any area of early American
studies, to begin July 1. A principal criterion for selection is that the
candidate's dissertation or other manuscript has significant potential as a
distinguished, book-length contribution to scholarship. A substantial
portion of the work must be submitted with the application. The Omohundro
Institute holds first claim on publishing the appointed fellow's completed
manuscript.

 

Applicants may not have previously published or have under contract a
scholarly monograph, and they must have met all requirements for the
doctorate, including a successful defense, by the application deadline for
the fellowship. Those who have earned the Ph.D. and begun careers are also
encouraged to apply. The OI's scope encompasses the history and cultures of
North America's indigenous and immigrant peoples during the colonial,
Revolutionary, and early national periods of the United States and the
related histories of Canada, the Caribbean, Latin America, the British
Isles, Europe, and Africa to approximately 1820.

 

Fellows devote most of their time to research and writing, work closely with
the editorial staff, and participate in colloquia and other scholarly
activities of the OI. Fellows have access to all research facilities,
lectures, and events at the William & Mary and other area resources
including Historic Jamestowne. One year is devoted to research and writing,
and fellows have the option to teach at William & Mary in the second year.

 

The fellowship is supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities
Fellowship Programs at Independent Research Institutions for the first year
($4,200 x 12 months) and by the Omohundro Institute for the second year
($4,200 x 12 months). In addition to the stipend of $50,400 per year, the
fellowship provides office, research, and computer facilities as well as
some travel funds for conferences and research. Fellows also have the option
of spending a summer at the Huntington Library on a full grant within five
years of their residency in Williamsburg.

 

The award is open to all eligible persons equally. Foreign nationals must
have been in continuous residence in the United States for the three years
immediately preceding the date of application for the fellowship in order to
be eligible for NEH funding. William & Mary values diversity and invites
applications from underrepresented groups who will enrich the research,
teaching and service missions of the university. William & Mary is an Equal
Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer and encourages applications from
women, minorities, protected veterans, and individuals with disabilities.
William & Mary conducts background checks on applicants for employment.

 

The online application will be available in early August.

The deadline for electronic submission of applications is November 1.
