Department Nomination Deadline: See GSAS website for deadline.

Please visit the GSAS website for additional details. Students must be nominated by their GSAS department to qualify. Self-nominations are not accepted.

Two (2) awards of $2,500 for Summer 2024 are available to outstanding GSAS graduate students nominated by their departments to support study and research in Africa. Doctoral student applicants should, within one (1) year of the award, expect to complete any remaining coursework and requirements (qualifying, comprehensive, and language exams) other than the dissertation. Exceptional Master’s students, proposing research contributing to their theses, are eligible to apply. The awards support the research and study abroad of scholars in the humanities and social sciences and may be used for visits to research sites, such as archival resource facilities, libraries, and fieldwork locations that will be necessary for later sustained dissertation research. Award recipients are expected to make a presentation of the research as part of the Africa House programming, during the Spring 2025 term.
