Applications for the Harry Frank Guggenheim Emerging Scholar Awards 2023 are now open. The Harry Frank Guggenheim Emerging Scholar Awards recognize promising graduate-student researchers in their final year of writing a doctoral dissertation examining a salient aspect of violence.

The Foundation welcomes proposals from any of the natural and social sciences or allied disciplines that promise to increase understanding of the causes, manifestations, and control of violence and aggression. Highest priority is given to research that addresses urgent, present-day problems of violence—what produces it, how it operates, and what prevents or reduces it.

Areas of Interest

The Foundation is interested in violence related to many subjects, including, but not limited to, the following:

• War
• Crime
• Terrorism
• Family and intimate-partner relationships
• Climate instability and natural resource competition
• Racial, ethnic, and religious conflict
• Political extremism and nationalism

The Foundation supports research that investigates the basic mechanisms in the production of violence, but primacy is given to proposals that make a compelling case for the relevance of potential findings for policies intended to reduce these ills. Likewise, historical research is considered to the extent that it is relevant to a current situation of violence. Examinations of the effects of violence are welcome insofar as a strong case is made that these outcomes serve, in turn, as causes of future violence.

Guggenheim Emerging Scholar Awards

• The award is $25,000 for one year and contributes to the support of a doctoral candidate to enable the completion of a dissertation that advances the Foundation’s research interests described above in a timely manner. They are available only to students for support during the final year of Ph.D. studies. The award does not support doctoral research.

Eligibility for Guggenheim Emerging Scholar Awards

• Applicants may be citizens of any country and studying at colleges or universities in any country.
• Applicants for an award must be Ph.D candidates entering the dissertation stage of graduate study. Usually, this means that fieldwork or other research is complete and writing has begun or will at the beginning of the award period.
• If analysis and writing are not far enough along for an applicant to be confident. That the dissertation will be completed within the award year, an application should not be submitted. In some disciplines, particularly experimental fields, research and writing can reasonably be expected to be completed within the same year, and in those cases, it is appropriate to apply.

Application of Guggenheim Emerging Scholar Awards

Applications for the Harry Frank Guggenheim Emerging Scholar Awards are open online annually between November 1 and February 1. Applicants must create an account to access the application and guidelines.
