Emeritus Fellowships
|
|
Purpose
Emeritus Fellowships are intended to support the scholarly activities of outstanding faculty members in the humanities and humanistic social sciences who, at the time of taking up the fellowships, will be officially retired but continue to be active and productive in their fields. In addition, the program provides institutions with resources to defray incremental costs associated with the fellows.
The fellowships are for one year. Consideration will occasionally be given to requests for renewals. Since the recipients will be retired and on pension, salary support will not be provided. Rather, the awards will consist of as much as $35,000 for research and related expenses. There is no requirement that the fellows remain at their home institutions, but it is assumed that many will wish to do so. Emeritus Fellowships do not preclude the holders from teaching on a limited basis, but any plans for teaching during the fellowship period should be described in the application and will require the approval of the Foundation. In order that fellows have full access to the resources and facilities necessary for their work, the awards will also include a subvention of up to $20,000 to the fellows' home institutions.
Selection Process and Awarding of Grants
It is expected that institutions will communicate the particulars of both the program and the application process to faculty members in the humanities and humanistic social sciences who are retired, or expect to be retired at the time they take up the award. Following an internal competition to be overseen by a committee of senior faculty members in the relevant disciplines, each institution will forward the proposals it has selected to the Foundation. For each scholar who is nominated, proposals should provide: (1) a description of the work that would be undertaken during the fellowship period; (2) a curriculum vitae; and (3) a budget detailing the use of the fellowship funds and institutional subvention (which must be itemized costs, not a general "overhead.") Universities may submit as many as three nominations, four-year liberal arts colleges as many as two. The Foundation convenes a panel of distinguished scholars which chooses approximately 20 finalists to present to the Foundation's Trustees. Once the Trustees have given their final approval, grants will be awarded to, and administered by, the fellows' home institution.
