NEH Fellowships, 1999-2000 Deadline:  May 1, 1998

The National Endowment for the Humanities announces the 1999-2000
competition for NEH fellowships.  These fellowships provide
opportunities for individuals to pursue advanced research in the
humanities.  Applicants may be faculty members of colleges and
universities, staff members of colleges and universities, or faculty
and staff members of primary and secondary schools.  Scholars and
writers working independently or in institutions such as museums,
libraries, and historical associations or in institutions with no
connection to the humanities also are eligible to apply.

Projects supported by NEH Fellowships may contribute to scholarly
knowledge or to the general public's understanding of the humanities.
Such work might eventually produce scholarly articles, a monograph on a
specialized subject, a book-length treatment of a broad topic, an
archaeological site report, a translation, an edition, or an other
scholarly tool.

Citizenship:  Applicants should be U.S. citizens, native residents of
U.S. jurisdictions, or foreign nationals who have been legal residents
in the U.S. or its jurisdictions for at least three years immediately
preceding the application deadline.

Eligibility:  Scholars affiliated with institutions granting the Ph.D.
in the subject area of the project should apply to the Fellowships for
University Teachers Program.  Scholars affiliated with institutions not
granting the Ph.D. in the subject area of the project, scholars
affiliated with other types of organizations, and independent scholars
should apply to the Fellowships for College Teachers and Independent
Scholars Program.  Applicants whose professional training includes a
degree program must have received their degrees or completed all
official requirements for them by the application deadline.  Persons
seeking support for work leading toward a degree are not eligible to
apply, nor are active candidates for degrees.  Further information on
the two programs is available in the printed guidelines.


Stipends and Tenure:  Tenure must cover an uninterrupted period of from
six to twelve whole months.  The earliest date that fellows may begin
tenure is January 1, 1999, and the latest is the start of the spring
term of the 1999-2000 academic year, or April 1, 2000 for those who are
not teachers.  Tenure periods for teachers must include at least one
complete term of the academic year.

A stipend of $30,000 will be awarded to those holding fellowships for a
grant period of from nine to twelve months.  A stipend of $24,000 will
be awarded to those holding fellowships for a grant period of from six
to eight months.

Submission of Applications:  All applications must be postmarked on or
before May 1, 1998.  Please note that the Endowment does not accept
applications submitted by fax or e-mail.  Applicants will be notified
of the decisions on their applications by mid-December 1998.
