Type: Grant
Name: Franklin Research Grants/APS-IASH Fellowship
Location: Edinburgh, Scotland
Application Deadline: December 03, 2018
Sponsoring Institution: American Philosophical Society
Details:
The Franklin program is particularly designed to help meet the costs of travel to libraries and archives for research purposes; the purchase of microfilm, photocopies, or equivalent research materials; the costs associated with fieldwork; or laboratory research expenses.
Applicants are expected to have a doctorate or to have published work of doctoral character and quality. Ph.D. candidates are not eligible to apply, but the Society is particularly interested in supporting the work of young scholars who have recently received the doctorate. Independent scholars and faculty members at all four-year and two-year research and non-research institutions are welcome to apply provided that all eligibility guidelines are met. American citizens and residents of the United States may use their Franklin awards at home or abroad. Foreign nationals not affiliated with a U.S. institution must use their Franklin awards for research in the United States. Applicants who have previously received a Franklin grant may reapply after an interval of two years.

In collaboration with the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities (IASH) at the University of Edinburgh, the APS offers a visiting fellowship of between two and four months for research in Edinburgh in the calendar year 2019 in any aspect of the humanities and social sciences. Further information about the IASH, including current research themes, is available by clicking here.

Note that there is no need to fill out a separate Franklin application, and candidates not selected for an IASH Fellowship will be considered for a Franklin Research Grant. Applicants will be notified in March.
Award: up to $6,000
