Bates Center Awards
and Fellowships
The Barbara Bates Center for the Study
of the History of Nursing is pleased to
offer a new Faculty Research Award and
two Brunner and Fisher Fellowships to
support research in the history of nursing.
The Karen Buhler-Wilkerson Faculty
Research Fellowship provides $1,200
of support to selected scholars based on
evidence of preparation and/or productivity
in historical research and/or
teaching related to nursing. Scholars are
expected to present the findings of their
work at the Center’s seminar series.
The Alice Fisher Society Fellowship
and the Lillian Sholtis Brunner Fellowship
for Historical Research in Nursing
both offer $2,500 to support two weeks
in residence at the Center and on going
collaboration with nurse historians
associated with the Center. The Fisher
Fellowship is open to those with masters
and doctoral level preparation. Candidates
with doctoral preparation will be
preferred for the Brunner Fellowship
but fellowships are open to those with
pre-doctoral preparation. Both Fisher
and Brunner Fellows will participate in
Center activities and will present their
research at Center seminars.
It is expected that the research and
new materials produced by each of the
awardees will help ensure the growth of
scholarly work focused on the history of
nursing.
The deadline for submission of applications
is December 31, 2009 with a
projected award date of March 1, 2010.
