Franklin Mosher Baldwin Memorial Fellowships, 02/00
This fellowship is intended for scholars and students
with citizenship in an African country who seek to
obtain an advanced degree or specialized training in
an area of study related to human origins research.
This award is for a program of approved special training
and/or advanced training towards an MA, PhD, or equivalent
and is limited to two years of support. The applicant
must have a home sponsor who is a member of the institution
where the applicant is affiliated in the home country
as well as a host sponsor who is a member of the institution
in which the candidate plans to pursue training. Should
an award be made, the host sponsor must be willing
to assume responsibility for overseeing the candidate's
training. Since this fellowship is intended to be a
partnership between the candidate and both the home
and host institutions, it is expected that candidates
will be offered support by these institutions in the
form of financial assistance and, upon completion of
training, employment in the home country. Contact:
