The Institute for Humane Studies at George Mason University awards Humane Studies Fellowships of up to $12,000 to support the work of graduate students and outstanding undergraduates exploring the principles, practices, and institutions necessary for a free society.
Last year, more than $600,000 was awarded to students pursuing degrees in the US and abroad. 2008-2009 fellows are studying at universities around the world and come from a range of disciplines including economics, history, journalism, law, philosophy, political science, and public policy.
To be eligible for the fellowship, you must be an undergraduate in your junior or senior year or a graduate student pursuing a degree in any subject at any university full-time during the 2010-2011 academic year. Citizens of all countries are eligible to apply.
