| | Lloyd and Susanne Rudolph Field Research Awards for Graduate Students
| |
|
|
|
| | Last fall, in the legacy of Lloyd and Susanne Rudolph, CISSR awarded funding to eleven graduate students from across the Division of the Social Sciences to support field and archival research projects for current and future dissertation work around the world.
Beginning January 22, 2019, CISSR will accept proposals for the 2019 Lloyd and Susanne Rudolph Field Research Awards. These grants supports MA and PhD students conducting short-term research abroad by providing students with up to $5,000 that can be used to carry out fieldwork in support of MA theses, qualifying papers, pilot projects, and/or portions of their dissertation research. Students engaging in original data-collection efforts and traveling to access archives abroad are especially encouraged to apply.
Interested students can learn more about eligibility requirements and the application process here or by contacting Teresa Rodriguez via email at teresar@uchicago.edu or by phone at (773) 702-7721.
