The Hart Institute for American History awards up to 3
summer research grants for Pomona students. The proposed
research may be in:
- any area of American history;
- interdisciplinary research that pays significant
attention to American history (e.g., research on American
literature or on the American economy that has an
historical dimension); or
- comparative or Western hemispheric studies that
address aspects of American history.
The proposals will be judged on the interest,
significance, and originality of the proposed
research; the clarity, specificity, and
practicality of the research plan; the extent of research
in original sources; and the likelihood that the research
will result in a significant contribution, such as a
senior honors thesis, a substantial research paper, a
documentary film or some other appropriate form of
expression
Students should submit to the Office of the Dean of the
College:
- a 2-3 page research proposal that clearly indicates
the focus and significance of the proposed research; the
kinds and locations of the sources to be examined; and the
expected outcome of the project;
- a one page preliminary bibliography;
- one letter of recommendation; and
- an official transcript and brief statement of
qualifications to do the proposed research
Current deadlines and stipend amounts are determined by the
Office of the Dean of the College (x 18328) |
