Charles A. Lindbergh Chair In Aerospace History

Description

The Charles A. Lindbergh Chair in Aerospace History is a competitive 12-month fellowship to senior scholars with distinguished records of publication who are at work on, or anticipate being at work on, books in aerospace history. Support is available for living expenses in Washington, D.C. Tenure is typically for an academic year (September through August). The Lindbergh Chair selection process runs one cycle earlier than for the other fellowships because senior scholars often need more time to arrange sabbaticals or leave. Applications are due December 15 for a term that begins nearly two years later. Applicants must submit three letters of reference; a summary description of the proposed research; a research proposal that should set forth the research plan; a research budget for remote travel costs, and other support required to conduct the research itself; a bibliography of literature relevant to the applicant's proposed research, especially that cited in the research proposal; an estimated schedule for each phase of the proposed research; and a curriculum vitae or resume, including pertinent publications, fellowships or accomplishments relevant to the proposal. Please visit the fellowship's website for more information.
