>The Mellon program at UCLA is designed to explore the emerging field of Transnational Studies. Its aim is to broaden the study of minority cultures from its national focus to global and comparative perspectives. We seek innovative scholarship that explores minority cultures as major components of world culture and history, generated by immigrant and minority writers, artists, filmmakers, playwrights, and musicians residing in metropolitan centers across the world and thereby reshaping the canons of literature, art, and music in their respective countries. The program encourages the investigation of such patterns of encounter over several centuries in order better to understand what is distinctive about each period and in each field of research.

>There is no application form.
