The German Historical Institute, Washington, DC, is now accepting applications for a 6- to 12-month Fellowship in The History of Race and Ethnicity. Potential projects could focus on (but are not limited to) the following areas: African American History or the history of any other ethnic or racial group in North America, the construction of race and ethnicity, the intersection of race and nationalism, the transformation of racial and ethnic concepts over time. It is essential that the proposed research projects make use of historical methods and engage with the relevant historiography. The fellowship term begins September 1, 2017.

The fellowship is open to both doctoral and postdoctoral scholars. The monthly stipend is $1,900 for doctoral students and $3,200 for postdoctoral scholars from European institutions. To apply please send a cover letter, a CV, a copy of your most recent diploma or transcripts, at least one letter of reference (sent separately), a research project proposal (5-pages or 2,000 words max), and a research schedule for the fellowship period, no later than December 1, 2016.
