Research Council Collaborative Visiting Fellowship Program.<br><br>

<br>
The Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC)
(<a href="http://www.esrc.ac.uk" eudora="autourl">www.esrc.ac.uk</a>) and
the Social Science Research Council (SSRC) have announced a fellowship
for U.S. and Canadian scholars to visit and engage in collaborative
activities with members of ESRC-supported projects in Britain, or for
British scholars at ESRC-supported projects to visit collaborators in the
U.S. or Canada, between June 1, 2006 and September 1, 2007.<br><br>
ESRC and SSRC have a common mission of promoting, funding, and
disseminating important and socially useful knowledge in the social
sciences. This is the third round of a pilot scheme designed to
encourage comunication and cooperation between social scientists in Great
Britain and the United States and Canada, and to explore and develop
possibilities for future exchanges to be organized by ESRC and
SSRC.<br><br>
Approximately ten research fellowships of up to $8,500 will be
awarded. Funds may be used for transportation, accommodation,
living expenses, and, exceptionally, to cover salary costs for the
duration of the visit. Fundable activities include but are not
strictly limited to engaging in collaborative or complementary research
that will add a new international comparative focus to existing research
projects; engaging with a range of researchers, including younger
scholars, to stimulate international and comparative dimensions to their
thinking; writing co-authored papers, articles, and books; and developing
new proposals for joint research.<br><br>
Applicants from the U.S. and Canada should have received a Ph.D. in one
of the social sciences (including history) by the time the proposed
visiting fellowship would start and must be endorsed by the Director of
the ESRC-supported centre, programme, group or network with which they
are interested in collaborating. In addition, they should have been
based in the U.S. for at least two years before the application
deadline. The fellowship scheme is open to scholars from U.S. and
Canadian universities, colleges, independent research organizations, and
public agencies, as well as to scholars at ESRC-supported centers,
programs, groups, and networks in Britain.<br><br>
The deadline for applications to arrive at the SSRC is 12:00 noon, April
20, 2006 (UK time). Awards will announced during the first week of
May 2006.<br><br>
