Comments: The Division of the Social Sciences is pleased to invite nominations for the Hanna Holborn Gray Advanced Fellowships in the Humanities and Humanistic Social Sciences. This award, established in 2005-2006, is made possible by a generous grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and is designated to support our very best graduate students in the second half of their graduate program at the University. The grant is made in honor of Mrs. Gray and is given in recognition of her dedicated efforts to improve and sustain graduate education at the University and beyond and of her own notable achievements as a scholar.

One fellowship will be awarded each year in the Humanities Division and one in the Social Sciences Division with the latter selected from the humanistic Social Sciences departments (Anthropology, Committee on Conceptual and Historical Studies of Science, Comparative Human Development, History, Political Science, Social Thought, and Sociology).

Each department may nominate one student who is currently in the fourth year of study. Departments set internal deadline and procedures individually. Nominations should be submitted by Friday, April 13. Announcements of the winners will be made in mid-May.
