External Faculty Fellowships 2010-11

With generous funding from the Lynette S. Autrey Endowment and the National Endowment for the Humanities, the HRC offers up to four one-semester residential fellowships for external faculty. $40,000 to $50,000 stipend, depending on rank, as well as an allowance for research and relocation to be used during the appointment period. Fellows will be in residence at the center, and will teach one course. Deadline 2 November.

Fellowship recipients participate in the intellectual life of the center and the university. Applicants should describe how their research projects contribute to Rices intellectual community, including faculty research activity in the School of Humanities, participation in an HRC faculty workshop, or other interdisciplinary humanities initiatives.

Both junior and senior scholars with tenure or tenure-track appointments at colleges and universities other than Rice are eligible to apply. They must be at least three years beyond receipt of the PhD at the beginning of the fellowship term, (i.e. for 2010-11 fellowships, should have received PhD no later than July 1, 2007).
