Post-Doctoral Fellowships [Kaufman program]

Henry Kaufman Financial History Post-Doctoral Fellowships provide up to $60,000 for up to twelve months for PhDs whose work engages meaningfully with financial history in any time period or region of the world and who earned a doctorate within 5 years of the application deadline.  The typical applicant will use the research time to revise her or his dissertation for publication, but applications for support of second-book project research also are welcome. Award recipients are expected to devote full time during their fellowship tenure to the proposed project. The fellowship period must begin within twelve months of notification of the award, unless granted an extension by the Selection Committee.
