Deadline: 19.04.2012
22 summer institute fellowships for advanced grad students.
The DAAD Center for German & European Studies at the University of Minnesota invites applications to the 12th Trans-Atlantic Summer Institute in European Studies (TASI). The Institute will bring together
11 German or other European, and 11 North American advanced graduate students for an intensive two-week seminar on the campus of the University of Minnesota. The 2012 topic is "Class, Church, Community:
The Historical Origins of Current European Social Policy." The 2012 faculty leaders are Ben Ansell (Political Science; University of
Minnesota) and Johannes Lindvall (Political Science; Lund University, Sweden). The Institute offers a diverse mix of seminar discussions of key readings, research presentations by guest faculty and fellows, and informal discussions of fellows' research projects. The international faculty team encourages applications from young scholars in the social sciences and humanities who are eager to situate their own projects in the context of political conflicts over states and markets, over religious and cultural identities, and over the territorial reach of the nation state. All selected students will receive fellowships. Institute language is English. A reading knowledge of one other European language is required. Application deadline: April 19, 2012.
