The Atlantic World Research Network
Graduate Student Research Prizes |
In 2008-2009, the Atlantic World Research Network will sponsor three Graduate Student Research Prizes of $400 each to recognize outstanding research or creative activity completed during 2008-2009 that addresses the transatlantic exchange—in the humanities, the social sciences, the natural sciences, or the arts.
Types of work eligible include essays, theses, scientific findings, exhibits, installations, performances, fiction and poetry. Submissions should be accompanied by a letter of application from the author(s) or presenter(s) explaining the work’s Atlantic World connections, and a letter of support from a faculty sponsor explaining the work’s significance and place in its field of inquiry or creativity. If the work cannot be submitted in printed form, then the letter of application must explain where and how the work can be seen or heard for evaluation.
Deadlines: Submissions and letters of application and support are accepted all year, but are due by April 15, 2009.
