Latino Studies Fellowship Program 2006 

The Latino Studies Fellowship Program provides opportunities to US Latino/a
predoctoral students and postdoctoral and senior scholars to pursue research
topics that relate to Latino art, culture, and history. 

Interdisciplinary subjects are encouraged and can be undertaken at more
than one of the Smithsonian museums and/or research units, and advised by
one or more of the Smithsonian research staff members.

This program differs from the Smithsonian Institution Fellowship Program.
It is intended to broaden and increase the body of Latino related research
that is being conducted at the Smithsonian Institution. 

While not a condition of the award, fellows are invited to pursue a portion
of their project in the field: at other museums or research facilities, as
well as in communities where primary data can be collected. A research and
travel allowance will be made available to cover additional costs of
spending up to one third of the fellowship tenure away from the Smithsonian,
if appropriate and necessary, but not at the fellow's home institution. 

Term: Fellowships are available for 3 to 12 months. 

Stipend: Senior and Postdoctoral - $35,000 per year 
Predoctoral - $22,000 per year 

Deadline: January 15th (postmark) for awards to begin on or after June 1st
