About This Opportunity

The Founders' Dissertation Fellowship recognizes graduate students who show promise of significant contributions to historical scholarship. This award is offered by the Western Association of Women Historians (WAWH) to support doctoral candidates who are actively writing their dissertations. Award funds may be used for purposes directly or indirectly related to the dissertation, such as for expenses related to research, attendance at scholarly conferences, or that incurred in the preparation of the dissertation. Applicants must have been advanced to candidacy and be engaged in scholarship that is historical in nature, though the degree may be in related fields. Recipients are expected to complete their Ph.D. no earlier than December of the calendar year in which the award is made. The fellowship provides $1,000 to support dissertation research and related scholarly activities.
