Andrew Carnegie Fellows Program
$200,000 honorific fellowship to support research re: “why our society has become so polarized and what can be done to strengthen American democracy.” The University may nominate one senior scholar (PhD more than 10 years ago) and one junior scholar (PhD less than 10 years ago). This opportunity is open to all disciplines.
Competitive applicants will demonstrate both compelling research plans and solutions to strengthen U.S. democracy. Interested candidates should also review the 2024 Fellows cohort and consider how their proposal is a distinctive contribution.
In anticipation of the Fall 2024 release of this funding opportunity, NDR Limited Submissions is conducting the internal competition now to increase the time available to the institutional nominees to prepare a competitive proposal.
Please note that ISLA will host a webinar with representatives from the Carnegie Fellows program. The webinar will be on Friday, Sept 6 from 12:00-12:45 p.m. Note that this session will NOT be recorded.
