The F.K. Weyerhaeuser Forest History Fellowship provides a stipend to Duke University graduate students pursuing research in the fields of forest, conservation, or environmental history. The recipient is selected on the basis of merit; proposals are judged in terms of overall significance and quality of presentation. The project must be historical in nature and treat land use, forestry, or the environment in some general way. Applicants must provide a cover letter that states the title of the proposed research, a one-paragraph summary of the significance of the project, and a description of the historical nature of the project. They must also prepare a narrative description of research, including significance of topic, research approach, author's background, research and writing schedule, and budget. A curriculum vita and 2 letters of recommendation from persons knowledgeable of the applicant's research are also required. Applications may be submitted through mail or email.
