The American Politics Group’s 2025 Rosamund Davies Memorial Research Travel Fellowship and 2025 Elisha and Elizabeth Atkins Memorial Research Travel Fellowship

• The American Politics Group invites applications for two grants of £750 to help support research trips to the USA for work on projects related to American politics.
• Applications are invited from persons normally resident in the UK, and from scholars currently working at, or registered as postgraduates at, UK universities and institutions of higher education. Preference will be given to young scholars, primarily postgraduate students. Unsuccessful applicants for previous rounds of the awards are eligible to apply.
• While the project may be part of a larger and long-term programme of work, the proposed research visit should have well-defined, achievable and discrete aims, with results that will be reported and disseminated widely. The award is not intended to complement a long stay visit to the USA.
• The closing date for applications is midnight on 31 JANUARY 2025. The research trip must be completed by 31 OCTOBER 2026. Awards for travel will not be made retrospectively.

APG travel Fellows:

• are required to provide a brief report of their research trip for publication on the APG website (previous examples can be found here and here)
• should acknowledge the assistance of the American Politics Group in any publication that results from research carried out as a result of the award
• are invited to present a research paper to the APG conference which draws on the work undertaken during the Fellowship period
