\nThe Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies (USMEX) at the University of California, San Diego invites applications for dissertation fellowships for the 2012-2013 academic year. The Center’s Visiting Fellows Program is the largest residential fellowship program in the United States for research on Mexico. Each year the program brings together scholars from the social sciences, history, and related fields.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Visiting Fellows are expected to be PhD candidates who are ABD and have completed a substantial portion of their dissertations.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/strong>Postdoctoral and Visiting Professors please click here for more information.<\/a><\/span>\u00a0We in particular encourage University of California graduate students to apply to the program. The majority of the fellowship awards are for residential periods between 4 and 9 months in duration. Fellowships generally start at the beginning of the academic year and are not given over the summer months (July-September). Stipends are determined by UC general policies and funding availability.<\/p>\n

Priority will be given to proposals on social policy, public health, governance, discrimination and poverty and local development; although, the Center will consider supporting research in other more general studies. For a current list of visiting fellows and their research projects click here.<\/a> Awards have been given in the past supporting research on contemporary Mexico, Mexican history, and U.S.-Mexican relations. Comparative studies with a substantial Mexico component are also encouraged.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
