The initiative will complement three other research fellowship programs at the Society: 1) short-term fellowships; 2) regional fellowships (in collaboration with the New England Regional Fellowship Consortium; and 3) a two-month Civil War fellowship (in collaboration with the Boston Athenaeum). In the Spring of 2012 the four research fellowship competitions the Society sponsors considered 226 applications and made 37 awards. Fellows employ these grants at the Society, where they make use of one of the great research collections for the study of American history. |
