The Beinecke offers Pre-Prospectus Summer Fellowships to enable Yale Graduate students to determine how Beinecke collections may serve their research needs as they prepare and hone their prospectuses.
Only students whose proposals demonstrate a need for extensive use of Beinecke materials will be considered for these awards. Awarded fellows may not hold concurrent teaching positions or any concurrent fellowships (other than, when appropriate, the standard Graduate School support).
All awarded fellows are expected to dedicate a minimum of 25 hours of research in the Beinecke collections per week throughout the fellowship period. Please note that attendance will be monitored and stipends will be adjusted to reflect shortened research period. At the end of the research period, fellows are also asked to provide a brief statement indicating how this fellowship support was used to accomplish research goals. The application form goes live in January each year and is due the following March.
Application deadline: March 1, 2019
For awards to be taken between June 1 - August 31, 2019
Fellowship applications can be found on the Yale Student Grants & Fellowships website.
