FOR A "WHEELER"

             
 
The Bonnie Wheeler Fellowship Fund is designed to support the research of women medievalists with tenure below the rank of full professor. Current award amount: $25,000 paid directly to the recipient.

Eligibility: Applicants must be women who hold a Ph.D. in any area of medieval studies and who are full-time tenured associate professors in an academic department in the U.S.

Preference will be given to candidates who are “caught in the middle” on the promotion ladder. Budgets for Fellowship applications may include not only research costs, but also the costs of freeing up applicants’ time, for example, relief from summer teaching, daycare and/or eldercare expenses, and the like. Candidates from previous years are urged to reapply.

Mentoring: A special feature of the Fellowship is that it will connect the recipient with a mentor in her scholarly field.

Timetable: The application period is from November 1, 2024 through January 31st, 2025. Completed applications must be received no later than January 31st. The award will be announced to the recipient by February 28th.

Application Procedure: Please complete this form, with uploaded documents, to apply
