THE EDWARD L. RYERSON FELLOWSHIP IN ARCHAEOLOGY
Deadline: March 21, 2012
Comments: The Edward L. Ryerson Fellowship is awarded annually by the Ryerson Fellowship Committee to graduate students who are studying Greek and Roman archaeology. The Fellowship supports primarily travel to study excavations and collections of classical antiquities. In case the candidates in any one year are not sufficiently advanced in their work to profit by study abroad, the Fellowship may be awarded for study in residence at the University. In the absence of qualified candidates for either a traveling or a residence grant in Greek and Roman archaeology, the Fellowship will be available to graduate students who are studying Near Eastern archaeology.
Applications for a travel grant should consist of a clear and concise statement of purpose and a budget specifying the expected cost of transportation, housing and meals. Applications for a grant in residence should provide a detailed plan of work for the period of the grant. All applications should include a transcript and letter from the student's advisor (or a professor well-acquainted with the student's work and the proposed plan of research). At the end of their term, Fellows are asked to submit a short report to the Committee.
The deadline for receipt of applications is Wednesday, March 21. ALL APPLICATION MATERIALS SHOULD BE SUBMITTED ELECTRONICALLY to the Humanities Dean of Students Office. Proposals and faculty recommendation letters should be addressed to the Ryerson Fellowship Selection Committee, and emailed to Michael Beetley at mrbeetle@uchicago.edu. Applicants should also request an official University transcript to be sent to mrbeetle@uchicago.edu.
