2021-2022 MELLON FELLOWSHIP FOR PRE-DOCTORAL AND POST-DOCTORAL SCHOLARS AT JWJI!
The Visiting Fellows Program is the core program of the Johnson Institute. The program supports new PhDs, faculty members, and independent scholars with a distinguished record of research on questions that examine the origins, evolution, impact and legacy of race, difference, and the modern quest for civil and human rights. The Johnson Institute is committed to recruiting only the best and most promising scholars in the field. The expectation is that Visiting Fellows will complete a major work that will assume the form of a monograph or other equally substantial forms of scholarship. Beyond the Johnson Institute, Visiting Fellows are institutionally affiliated with the Emory College of Arts and Sciences.
DISSERTATION FELLOWSHIP FOR PRE-DOCTORAL SCHOLARS
The James Weldon Johnson Institute of Emory University invites applications for its Visiting Fellows Program. Supported by a generous grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the Visiting Fellows Program provides two completion fellowships for Ph.D. candidates in their final year of graduate school. We welcome applications from scholars in the humanities. We are interested in research projects across the spectrum of the humanities that examine the origins, evolution, impact and legacy of race, difference, and the modern quest for civil and human rights. We also support research projects that examine race and ethnicity and its points of intersection with other identities and movements addressing differences along gender, class, religious, or sexual lines.
All fellows will be required to make a presentation of their work (presentation varies by rank). All Visiting Fellows will be in residence at Emory’s Johnson Institute for the academic year 2021-2022.
