The Center for Comparative Immigration Studies
University of California, San Diego
CCIS will offer a limited number of Visiting Research Fellowships at =
both the predoctoral and postdoctoral levels for the 2006-07 academic =
year. These awards are to support advanced research and writing on any =
aspect of international migration and refugee flows, in any of the =
social sciences, history, law, and comparative literature. Due to =
funding constraints, CCIS will be able to award fellowships for the =
2006-07 academic year only to scholars who have a current or former =
affiliation to a University of California campus (as a student, faculty =
member, or researcher). Non-stipend Guest Scholars are not required to =
have a UC affiliation. CCIS fellowships must be held in residence at =
UCSD (commuting arrangements from outside of San Diego cannot be =
permitted).=20
Visiting Research Fellows are provided with shared office space and a =
computer, as well as full access to all UCSD academic, institutional, =
and recreational resources. They benefit from interaction in a =
supportive, interdisciplinary community of scholars and have multiple =
opportunities to present their research at seminars and participate in =
writer's and academic professionalization workshops.
Predoctoral applicants are expected to finish writing their =
dissertations during their fellowship tenure. Recent postdoctoral =
applicants can request support to turn a dissertation into a publishable =
manuscript or to prepare shorter publications based on the dissertation =
project. More senior scholars can propose any major research or writing =
project. The duration of the fellowship is usually 9-10 months, although =
shorter stays may also be possible. No summer-only fellowships will be =
awarded.=20
For the current academic year, stipends are $2,250 per month for =
predoctoral fellows and $3,000 - $4,000 per month for recent =
postdoctoral fellows (Ph.D. received within the last 6 years) depending =
on seniority. Stipends for more senior scholars are negotiable. Fellows =
will also receive full UCSD employee benefits. CCIS fellowships may be =
supplemented with compensation from other fellowships, research grants, =
sabbatical leaves, or other sources. Some CCIS fellows may be
requested to teach a one-quarter (10-week) course in a UCSD department.
Application forms and guidelines can be downloaded in Microsoft Word or =
PDF. All application materials must be received no later than January =
16, 2006 for fellowships to be held during the 2006-07 academic year. =
Candidates will be evaluated by a committee of CCIS faculty research =
associates and finalists will be interviewed by CCIS academic staff. =
Final decisions will be made by early March.=20
Scholars whose work deals with Mexican migration to the United States =
can apply jointly to CCIS and the Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies =
(application forms and guidelines can be downloaded from the USMEX =
website at www.usmex.ucsd.edu). They should submit separate applications =
to each Center.=20
Individuals with their own extramural funding may apply to become CCIS =
Guest Scholars. The application form is the same as for a Visiting =
Research Fellowship and may be submitted at any time. Guest Scholars =
receive the same privileges as Visiting Research Fellows.=20
If you have any questions about the Visiting Research Fellows Program, =
please contact Gaku Tsuda, Associate Director of CCIS (tel.#: 858 =
