Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass Applications are invited for a Michael von Clemm Fellowship for study at Harvard University during the academic year 2013-2014.
The Fellowship is conducted to commemorate Michael von Clemm (1935-97), who was a graduate of Harvard and a graduate student (and subsequently Honorary Fellow), of Corpus Christi College. It is open to undergraduates from all academic disciplines at the University of Oxford who will be entering their final year in October 2012 and also to those who will complete their degree in June 2012. It is intended to attract applicants of very high academic caliber and who have the personal qualities likely to conduce to success in an academic or a non-academic career. The holder will also be perceived (however informally) as an ‘ambassadorial’ representative of Oxford at Harvard, and should be content with and capable of that role.
The successful applicant will spend a year at the Harvard Graduate School of Arts and Sciences as a Special Student following a course of study or research of his or her choice (subject to the availability of tuition or supervision at Harvard); he/she must apply to and be registered at that School and no other. The Fellowship is not intended for those wishing to study vocational subjects, such as Business Administration or Law. Potential applicants are advised to look at the School website, and should if possible list in their application the specific courses there which they hope to take.
The Fellowship will meet the costs of all tuition at Harvard as well as travel between Boston and the UK and will provide an allowance sufficient to cover the costs of living at Harvard.
Deadline: not later than 5pm on 26 October 2012.
