Fellowship in Latino/a Christianity and Religions The Graduate Program in Religious Studies at Southern Methodist University, in cooperation with the Center for the Study of Latino/a Christianity and Religions at Perkins School of Theology, is pleased to announce the availability of a doctoral fellowship in Latino/a Christianity and Religions for a PhD student entering the program in the fall of 2008. The fellowship, supported in part by a grant to the Center from the Henry Luce Foundation, will carry an annual stipend of $16,000.00 in addition to a waiver for the full amount of tuition and fees. It is renewable annually for two additional years beyond the 2008-09 academic year, assuming satisfactory progress toward the degree. A regular dissertation fellowship, including appropriate stipend support, would normally be available for a fourth year of study. The fellowship is for a student who aims to give particular attention to some aspect(s) of the Latino/a religious experience during his or her doctoral studies and in his or her subsequent teaching and research. It is not limited to a particular field of specialization; applicants whose interests are in any of the six fields represented in the Graduate Program—Old Testament / Hebrew Bible, New Testament, the Christian Tradition, Systematic Theology, Religious Ethics, and Religion and Culture—are eligible. There is no separate application procedure for the fellowship, apart from the application for admission to the Graduate Program in Religious Studies. Those interested in being considered for the fellowship should simply indicate this interest clearly in the “statement of purpose” that is to accompany the application for admission. Information about the Graduate Program, and application forms and materials, are available here.
