Fellowship

These fellowships are designed to identify and develop a new generation of leaders interested in and capable of creating practice and policy initiatives that will enhance child development and improve the nation's ability to prevent all forms of child maltreatment.

The Fellowship in African and African American History and Culture supports research on topics related to African and African American history, including the Atlantic slave trade, the development and practice of slavery, the experience of free blacks, the formation of early black institutions and economies, and the emergence of African American expressive culture.

The John D. Rockefeller Jr. Library Fellowship, available for one to three months, supports projects that clearly relate to the Foundation's primary academic and interpretive priorities.

Offered through a partnership between the University of Virginia’s Miller Center and the School of Law, the yearlong Charles W. McCurdy Fellowship in Legal History allows scholars to complete dissertations in legal and political history while in residence at the Law School.
