HAGLEY MUSEUM AND LIBRARY GRANTS.
Hagley Exploratory Research Grants. These grants support one-week visits by scholars who believe that their project will benefit from Hagley research collections but need the opportunity to explore them on-site to determine if a Henry Belin du Pont research grant application is warranted. Priority will be given to junior scholars with innovative projects that seek to expand on existing scholarship. Applicants should reside more than fifty miles from Hagley, and the stipend is $400. Application deadlines: March 31, June 30, and October 31, 2022.

HARVARD BUSINESS SCHOOL BUSINESS HISTORY FELLOWSHIPS.
The Harvard-Newcomen Postdoctoral Fellowship in Business History. This postdoctoral fellowship, open to early-career scholars, is to be awarded for twelve months’ residence, study, and research at Harvard Business School. The fellowship has two purposes. The first is to enable scholars who have already demonstrated an engagement with business history broadly defined to deepen their knowledge of teaching pedagogy and research methods in the discipline. The fellow will have the opportunity to contribute to teaching and course development in MBA and doctoral courses in business history. They will also take part in a weekly research seminar in the fall of each year in which leading scholars from around the world present their work. The second purpose is to enable an early-career scholar to develop their work in the discipline. The fellow is strongly encouraged to submit an article to Business History Review during the fellowship year. They might also organize a research conference on a subject related to their research. A research budget will be provided. Application and related materials are due by November 1, 2022. For more information and submission instructions, please visit the Business History Fellowships page: http://www.hbs.edu/businesshistory/fellowships/Pages/default.aspx.
