Humane Studies Fellowships at George Mason University

Overview

Humane Studies Fellowships of up to $15,000 are awarded to graduate students and outstanding undergraduates planning academic careers with liberty-advancing research interests.

The fellowships are open to students in a range of fields, such as economics, philosophy, law, political science, anthropology, and literature.

The program began in 1983 as the Claude R. Lambe Fellowships, and in 2010 we awarded more than 180 fellowships ranging from $2,000 to $15,000.

Past fellows have researched a variety of topics that explore historical and contemporary ideas that maximize freedom of action and support the rule of law:

•market-based approaches to environmental policy
•the legal development of privacy and property rights in 18th-century England
•the role of patient autonomy in bioethics
•impediments to economic growth in developing countries
•the relationship between U.S. presidential politics, fiscal policies, and economic performance
•Review the research interests of the 2010 fellows


Research and Discussion Colloquia

Select winners are invited to present and discuss their research at the annual Research Colloquium and to attend the Friedrich Hayek Discussion Colloquium. Learn more.

Fellows also join a network of more than 10,000 IHS academics committed to the ideas of liberty and intellectual freedom.

Application Process

The deadline is December 31, 2010. Applications must be submitted through our online application system.

Eligibility: Applications for the Humane Studies Fellowship will be considered from those who will be full-time graduate students or undergraduate juniors or seniors in the 2010-2011 academic year and have a clearly demonstrated research interest in the intellectual and institutional foundations of a free society.

Awards are based on academic or professional performance, relevance of one's work to the advancement of a free society, and potential for success.
