Graduate Fellowship in Forest and Conservation History Deadline is 03/16/2020
The
Forest History Society is pleased to offer the Walter S. Rosenberry
Fellowship, a $15,000 stipend to support the doctoral research of a
graduate student attending a university in North America and whose research contributes to forest and conservation history regardless of geographic focus. Research focus on the historic relationships between humans, forests, and related resources is required. Among
the diverse topics that fall under the umbrella of the fellowship are
forest landscape change and history, invasive species, forest and
ecosystem management, forest policy and institutions, resource-dependent
communities, private land ownership, science and technology
developments, and sustainability. The recipient is selected on the basis
of merit: proposals are judged in terms of overall significance,
achievability, quality of presentation, academic record, and relevance
to forest history. The winner will be announced in mid-May 2020.
Application deadline is March 16, 2020.
