Mellon Dissertation Research Grants

The Mellon Foundation has provided funding to enable students to conduct dissertation research (including preliminary, exploratory research). The typical grant is $3,000, but may be adjusted upwards and downwards to accommodate an individual student’s needs. Funding will help cover research-related travel expenses (airfare, train fare, lodging, food, etc.), archive/library admission fees, special equipment and software, and other expenditures associated with research. The grant does not fund desktop or laptop computers, printers, or transcription services. The 2014-15 application will be posted here on January 7, 2014 and due March 6, 2014.
