Call for Applications

The Latin American Studies Program (LASP) is pleased to invite graduate students from across all disciplines to apply to become a LASP Graduate Fellow for AY 2021-2022. The Graduate Fellowships are competitive and provide an opportunity for a select number of graduate students to engage with a broad, interdisciplinary community dedicated to the study of Latin America and/or the Caribbean.  

Graduate Fellows will be expected to actively participate in the Latin American Studies Program’s activities. Responsibilities include attending and shaping the seminar series—with an eye toward a number of themes around which the series might be structured—and organizing at least one event that promotes interactions between undergraduate and graduate students via Cornell’s Zoom platform (or if permitted by the university in FA21 & SP22, an in-person event on campus). Applicant Grad students should send LASP an attached 1) application (Word doc), 2) copy of a CV, 3) a letter of recommendation from the chair of your committee, and 4) a brief abstract of current research by email to Bill Phelan, LASP Program Manager, by the deadline of Friday, May 7th by 11:59pm to: lasp@cornell.edu subject line "Grad Fellow Applic."
