The Dumas Malone & Albert Gallatin Graduate Research Fellowships

The trustees of the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation, Inc., established the Dumas Malone Fellowship in honor of Mr. Malone's service to the University and the Foundation. Its purpose is to support the research of outstanding advanced graduate students who have a need to investigate archives or other repositories of information in a foreign country or countries. The fellowship will normally be awarded, annually, to eligible students in the School of Architecture and the Departments of History and/or Politics. In the event that no such student is forthcoming in a given year, the fellowship could be awarded to any other graduate student whose research is related to the interests of Mr. Jefferson, regardless of field or discipline. The Albert Gallatin Fellowship supports outstanding, advanced graduate students engaged in the research or writing of a dissertation in the broad area of "international affairs." While not limited by discipline, "international affairs" may be taken to mean the study of political, economic, social, and legal processes across cultures or countries. Multinational studies are preferred over single-country studies.
