The School of Information and Library Science (www.sils.unc.edu) at the
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill welcomes applications for Ph.D.
fellowships funded through the Archival Education and Research Institute
(AERI) program supported by the Institute for Museum and Library Services
(IMLS). Please see the project website at:
http://aeri.gseis.ucla.edu/fellowships.htm. 

 

Doctoral Fellowships are currently available through a new eight-campus
initiative for individuals who are interested in pursuing careers as
educators and scholars in the field of Archival Studies and who would be
entering a doctoral program in Fall 2009. See the program website for the
full list of institutions. The Archival Education and Research Fellowships
are aimed at strengthening doctoral-level education in Archival Studies,
building the cohort of archival educators and increasing its diversity, and
promoting a broad base of rigorous archival scholarship.

 

Each Fellowship will provide full tuition and annual stipends of $20,000 to
Fellows for the first two years of their doctoral study at partnering
academic programs. Those academic programs will provide full tuition and
stipends to their Fellows for two additional years of study. A minimum of
two Doctoral Fellowships will be awarded for students who will be entering
doctoral programs at participating programs in Fall 2009. 

 

NOTE: The application deadline for this program (both to AERI and to
SILS/UNC) is JANUARY 9, 2009.

This project is a collaborative effort of eight colleges and universities,
including UNC-Chapel Hill, to promote the development of educators and
researchers in Archival Studies who are versed in contemporary issues and
research methodologies. The consortium is actively engaged in promoting
mentoring, instructional and research relationships and dialogue with other
doctoral students and faculty. 

 

Please consider applying and distribute this message to others interested in
doctoral-level archival studies.
