Allen & Irene Salisbury Fellowship

Purpose

The Allen and Irene G. Salisbury Fellowship is an endowed fund intended to support student research fellowships. these fellowships support independent research activities or projects in the creative or performing arts. Funding might be used for library, museum or archival research; fieldwork; and creating or learning to perform a work of art. 

Although the interests pursued through a Salisbury Fellowship might well grow out of course work or serve as preparation for comps, the purpose of the Fellowship is to provide freedom to engage in other kinds of learning.  In the selection process, preference will be given to those studying Nepal or Asia, in general.

Funding

Up to $5,000 per fellowship awarded.

Eligibility

• Sophomores and juniors are eligible to apply.
• Projects with any focus are eligible; preference will be given to those studying an aspect of Nepal or Asia.
