Every week, AHA Today showcases a new grant, fellowship, or scholarship of interest to historians which has been posted to our free Calendar. This week we are featuring the Michigan Historical Review 2018 Graduate Student Essay Contest.

The Michigan Historical Review is pleased to announce its 2018 Graduate Student Essay Contest. Entries must be graduate-level papers that involve the history of Michigan in some manner and include original research from primary sources. The winner receives publication in the journal plus a $2000 cash prize. 

Papers should be no longer than 12,000 words, foot-noted, double-spaced, without the writer’s name on any pages. A cover letter including the school program and supervisor’s name must be included with the essay and e-mailed to mihisrev@cmich.edu no later than 1 July 2018. Papers will be judged on originality, research, style, and proper documentation. Payment is awarded in two allotments: at the time of announcement and at press.

End: July 1, 2018
