Subject: The Quadrant Project scholarships
The University of Minnesota Press and the Institute for Advanced Study at the University of Minnesota announce a new initiative of publication and research collaboratives-the Quadrant project-funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The Press and the Institute will host four Quadrant Collaboratives which will focus on innovative and interdisciplinary work in the areas of Design and Architecture, Environmental Sustainability, Global Cultures, and Health and Society. More information on the project and these collaboratives is available at www.ias.umn.edu/quadrant.php .
As part of this initiative the Mellon Foundation is funding up to four external fellowships of up to one semester in length for individuals from outside the University to participate in the collaboratives for the academic year 2008-09. Stipends will be up to $30,000 for one semester. Successful fellowship applicants will be in residence at the Institute for Advanced Study during the tenure of their fellowship and will have the opportunity to work directly with university press editors in developing their work. Work completed while on this fellowship will be submitted to the University of Minnesota Press for publication through its standard peer review and faculty committee approval processes. The fellowship may not be used for work toward a degree.
To apply for the fellowship, please submit six copies of the following:
Research proposal (no longer than 1,500 words). Describe the research or creative project you will undertake during your residence. Indicate which of the four Quadrant Collaboratives you would like to join and include a discussion of how participation in the Quadrant project would advance your work.
An abstract of your proposal (200 words).
A curriculum vitae.
In addition, ask three people familiar with your work and this project to submit letters of support directly.
Review of proposals will begin on January 4, 2008.
Proposals and letters of support should be submitted to:
