Institute for Citizens & Scholars Faculty and Dissertation Fellowships for 2024

The Institute for Citizens & Scholars, formerly the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation, has opened its 2024 competition for several fellowships that support either dissertation completion or junior faculty progress toward tenure. Please share this email with colleagues you think would be good candidates for these opportunities.
 
Recipients not only receive support for their work, but also join a more than 75-year-old network of some 27,000 Fellows—a select group with an impressive collective record of scholarship, teaching, service, and public influence. Fellows find that these fellowships also give them opportunities to connect across fields with others who have similar interests and serve as a hallmark of promise widely recognized in their disciplines.

Thank you for your consideration; we look forward to hearing from any excellent candidates you might help us to identify.
