Dear Graduate Students,



I am writing to invite applications for this year’s History of Art Travel
Awards.  These are named after our key departmental benefactors: Barbara
Brink, Richard Carrott, and Francis Forster-Hahn. This year, we for the
first time offer the Christopher Meade Research Travel Award. For
descriptions, see:
https://arthistory.ucr.edu/graduate/brink-carrott-graduate-awards/.



These four awards provide a valuable opportunity to pursue research central
to your theses or dissertation topics in locations that would otherwise be
difficult to reach. They are open to Ph.D. and M.A. track students. This
year, the amount for the awards will be $1800 each.


*To apply, please use the following link, which will direct you to a Google
form document*: https://forms.gle/dcdxYYTUyzNYKRncA




*Applications are due by April 30th.*


One application will put you under consideration for all four awards, which
will be allocated by the faculty Graduate Review committee. If you
previously received a Brink or Carrott travel award, you are still eligible
to apply.



I encourage you all to begin to formulate a proposal for a research
project, even if your ideas for your theses are only in the germinal stage.
If you have an advisor, I suggest scheduling a quick meeting before the
break to discuss a research proposal for the travel grant. If you don't
have an advisor, or if your advisor isn't available, I am happy to consult
with you as well. Clicking on the above link, you will also be able to
access a redacted template for your information.



Please let me know if you have any questions.



Best, and good luck,

 Jason
