Call for Applications: 2023 MAA Summer Research Program

Source: https://www.medievalacademy.org/page/2023MAASummerResearchProgram




About: The Medieval Academy of America (MAA) is excited to announce a call for applications for a one-day summer session for PhD-track students. Organized by the Mentoring Program Committee, the 2023 MAA Summer Research Program is designed to assist and mentor graduate students through targeted workshops on how to write and secure grant proposals.



Format: The 2023 Summer Research Program will convene over Zoom for one day in August. Over the course of this day, participants will attend interactive workshops designed to teach and support the development of their academic grant proposals. Whether participants are actively working on a grant proposal, or are thinking ahead for later years of their PhD, this one-day workshop will teach participants the skills and strategies to be more successful applicants.



Eligibility: We seek PhD students who are in the pre-dissertation phase or dissertation phase with an expressed interest in researching a topic that intersects with medieval studies. Eligible students may be pursuing degrees in any discipline (e.g. Art History, Comparative Literature, Music, Education), and focusing in any geographic region of the world. Preference will be given to students who do not already have access to the resources this program provides. We especially encourage students to apply who are from communities and backgrounds that have been traditionally underrepresented or marginalized within medieval studies, especially students who are first-generation, persons of color, or in any way disadvantaged. Students do not need to be current MAA members or U.S. citizens to apply.



Application: Applications are due May 15, 2023, and can be accessed and submitted by clicking here. Applicants will be notified of decisions via email by June 5, 2023. For any questions, please email Nancy Wu (Nancy.Wu@metmuseum.org)
