Henry Chauncey Jr. '57 Postdoctoral Fellowships
in Grand Strategy at Yale University
THE COMPETITION FOR THE 2008-09 CHAUNCEY FELLOWSHIPS IS COMPLETE
ISS will announce the competition for its 2009-10 Chauncey Fellowships in early 2009.
The call for the 2009 competition will closely resemble that for the 2008 competition, which is below:
The Brady-Johnson Program in Grand Strategy at Yale
University, which operates under the auspices of
International Security Studies at Yale (ISS), will award
up to two Henry Chauncey Jr. '57 Postdoctoral
Fellowships that begin in Fall 2008.
These Fellowships will have a term of one academic
year. By mutual agreement of the Fellow and the Program,
the Fellowship may be renewable for a second year.
These Fellowships will provide opportunities for
research and teaching in the field of "grand
strategy" broadly defined. Fellows must be in
residence at Yale, and must have successfully defended
their doctoral dissertation by September 1, 2008.
The Program welcomes applications from both mid-career
and junior scholars. Scholars who have previously
held an ISS postdoctoral fellowship are eligible
to apply.
Fellows will be expected to conduct their own research
and are required by the terms of the Fellowship to
teach one course on a subject relevant to grand strategy
during each year in which they hold the Fellowship.
The stipend will vary according to the seniority
of the Fellow, but will be at least $45,000. The
Fellowship will provide shared office space and access
to Yale facilities, as well as single or family membership,
as appropriate, in the Yale Health Plan if the Fellow's
home institution does not provide transportable health
coverage.
Please submit a vita, a research proposal (describing
how the Fellowship will be used), transcripts, a
short (ca. 50 page) writing sample, and three letters
of reference to Ann Carter-Drier, Administrator,
International Security Studies, Yale University,
P.O. Box 208353, New Haven, CT 06520-8353. The deadline
is March 31, 2008. Finalists may be asked to visit

Female, minority and handicapped candidates, and
veterans are encouraged to apply. This call for applications is also
available on H-Net. If you have questions,
please e-mail ISS’s Associate Director Dr. Ted R. Bromund.

International Security Studies hosted one John
M. Olin Postdoctoral Fellow in Military History and
Strategy in 2006-07. Selected through an international
competition, the Fellow, Dr. David Ekbladh, was invited
to ISS with no obligation other than to pursue his
research. No Olin Postdoctoral Fellowships were awarded for the 2007-08 academic year.
This Program began in 1988. It achieved its goal of facilitating
research and publications, usually in the early stages
of a career, by providing Fellows selected through
an international competition with financial support
and time for research and writing, as well as the
academic advantages of residence at Yale University. The program was fully
funded by the John M. Olin Foundation from 1989.
