Deadline– 1 October 2013
All eligible applicants are invited to submit applications for Dissertation Proposal Development Fellowship (DPDF) Faculty Field Competition. The purpose of this program is to help fellows to focus in their research and identify appropriate methods of investigation and analysis.
How to apply?
All applications to the faculty field competition must be submitted online through the SSRC application portal. Each applicant in the pair must complete an application with background information; the pair will then jointly submit information about the research field. Deadlines are in early fall, annually.
Eligibility & Criteria-
- Applicants must apply in pairs.
- Applicants must be based at different universities, and at least one applicant must be based at a doctoral-degree granting university in the United States. However, both applicants must demonstrate records of carrying out research activities and mentoring graduate students.
- Applicants must be trained in different disciplines or bring different methodological frameworks to their proposed research field. (Applicant pairs comprised of scholars in the social sciences and humanities are particularly encouraged.)
- Research fields proposed to be led by more than two people will not be accepted.
- Both applicants must be tenured at the time of application.
- Both applicants must be available to attend the spring and fall workshops in their entirety. The workshop dates can be found in the DPDF Application and Award Timeline.
