June 1 and August 31, 2017. The fellowships pay for travel costs to and from
New Haven and a living allowance of $3,000 per month.
Recipients are expected to be in residence during the period of their award and
are encouraged to participate in the activities of Yale University.
Please note that attendance will be monitored and stipends will be adjusted to
reflect shortened research period. Split fellowship periods will not be
granted. Awarded fellows may not hold concurrent teaching positions or
any concurrent fellowships.
At the end of the research period, fellows are also asked to provide a brief
statement indicating how this fellowship support was used to accomplish
research goals.
