International Dissertation Research Fellowships.
The International Dissertation Research Fellowship (IDRF) program supports distinguished graduate students in the humanities and social sciences conducting dissertation research outside the United States. Fifty fellowships will be awarded in 2007 with funds provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The program invites proposals for empirical and site-specific dissertation research outside the United States.
The Fellowship
Fellowships will provide support for nine to twelve months of dissertation research. Individual awards will be approximately $20,000. No awards will be made for proposals requiring less than nine months of on-site research. The 2007 IDRF fellowship must be held for a single continuous period within the eighteen months between July 2007 and December 2008.
Eligibility
1) The program is open to full-time graduate students in the humanities and social sciences-regardless of citizenship-enrolled in doctoral programs in the United States.
2) Applicants must complete all Ph.D. requirements except on-site dissertation research by the time the fellowship begins or by December 2007, whichever comes first.
3) Students enrolled in professional schools (law, business, medicine, nursing, journalism, social work, etc.) are not eligible. Exceptions may be made for proposals in the fields of public policy, public health, and education, but only if research projects from these fields engage directly with broader theoretical and analytical issues in the humanities and social sciences.
4) Students who have already received nine months or more of support for dissertation research in one country are not eligible to apply to the IDRF to extend the research time in the same country.
