My friends at the Institute for Humane Studies have asked me to remind you that the application deadline for a Humane Studies Fellowship (HSF) is coming up on January 31st.

The Humane Studies Fellowship (HSF) program provides funding up to $15,000 per year and career development support for academics interested in liberty. An HSF award represents more than just monetary benefits; fellows join a network of seasoned scholars and receive advice on how to build a successful career in academia.

HSFs are awarded to full-time graduate students and outstanding undergraduates with a demonstrated interest in pursuing a scholarly career. The fellowships support study in a variety of fields, including economics, philosophy, law, political science, history, and sociology. Students in any field are eligible to apply. Awards range from $2,000 to $15,000 and fellowship winners may re-apply for each year of their studies. In 2012, IHS awarded more than $800,000 to over 200 students. The deadline to apply is January 31st. Additional information is available at www.TheIHS.org/HSF.
