Woodrow Wilson Foundation Awards
The WW Foundation has opened its 2021 competition for several fellowships that support either dissertation completion or junior faculty progress toward tenure. Recipients not only receive support for their work, but also join a 75-year-old network of some 27,000 WW Fellows—a select group with an impressive collective record of scholarship, teaching, service, and public influence. Fellows find that these fellowships also give them opportunities to connect across fields with others who have similar interests, and serve as a hallmark of promise widely recognized in their disciplines.
