Five College Fellowships offer year-long residencies for doctoral students completing dissertations. The program supports scholars from under-represented groups, and/or scholars with unique interests and histories, whose engagement in the Academy will enrich scholarship and teaching. Normally, four fellowships are awarded each year.

Each Fellow is hosted within an appropriate department or program at one of the four member colleges of the Five College consortium, Amherst, Hampshire, Mount Holyoke, or Smith. (At Smith, recipients hold a Mendenhall Fellowship.) 

The fellowship includes a stipend of $30,000, a research grant, health benefits, office space, housing or housing assistance, and library privileges at all five campuses belonging to the consortium.

While the award places primary emphasis on completion of the dissertation, most fellows teach at their hosting institution, but never more than a single one-semester course.

Date of Fellowship: August 31, 2009 to May 31, 2010 (non-renewable)
Stipend: $30,000
Review of Applications Begins: December 1, 2008
Awards will be announced by March, 2009

Questions about the program may be directed to: Nate Therien (ntherien@fivecolleges.edu) or Nancy Eckert (neckert@fivecolleges.edu) at Five Colleges Incorporated.
