Department of History and Civilization

The aim of the Department of History and Civilization (HEC) is to develop a distinctive programme of the transnational and comparative history of Europe, one that is conscious of the dangers of national models, of the need to study the construction of the boundaries of Europe and to insist on the variety of experiences within these boundaries. The rich variety of research approaches and themes, as well as the wide backgrounds of its professors, enable the Department to accept only high-quality applications from all over Europe. This diversity allows the Department to offer all its members an opportunity to take part in a truly international scientific community, unmatched by any other institution of higher learning in the world. Our central concerns are the interlinking among societies in Europe from the early modern period until the present and the complex cultural legacies that have shaped Europe today. The HEC community is also committed to exploring the place of Europe in worldwide processes and institutions. More Informations you find here.

Harvard Business School Fellowships in History

THE HARVARD-NEWCOMEN FELLOWSHIP IN BUSINESS HISTORY, 2010–2011

Announces a Postdoctoral Fellowship in Business History for $65,000

To be awarded for twelve months’ residence, study, and research at Harvard Business School, July 1, 2010–June 30, 2011.

The fellowship is open to scholars who, within the last ten years, have received a Ph.D. in history, economics, or a related discipline. The fellowship has two purposes: The first is to enable scholars to engage in research that will benefit from the resources of Harvard Business School and the larger Boston scholarly community. About two-thirds of the fellow’s time will be available for research of his or her own choosing. A travel fund and a book fund will be provided.

The second purpose is to provide an opportunity for the fellow to participate in the activities of Harvard Business School. Approximately one-third of the fellow’s time will be devoted to school activities, including attendance of the Business History Seminar, and working with faculty teaching the business history courses offered in the MBA curriculum. The fellow is required to research and write a case, under the direction of a senior faculty member, to be used in one of the business history courses. Finally, the fellow is encouraged to submit an article to Business History Review during his or her year at the School.

Applicants should submit a CV, undergraduate transcript and graduate-school record, thesis abstract, and writing sample (such as an article or a book chapter). Applicants should also state the topics, objectives, and design for the specific research to be undertaken. Finally, applicants should indicate the names of three people who will write references on their behalf. The three letters of recommendation are to be submitted by the writers directly by October 1, 2009. It is the responsibility of the applicant to solicit these letters. The fellowship will be awarded and all applicants notified by mid-January 2010. Hard copy materials submitted with applications will be returned only if accompanied by postage and a self-addressed return envelope.

Applications should be received no later than October 1, 2009 and submitted to: Materials should be submitted online to: http://www.hbs.edu/research/faculty-recruiting/faculty-applicants.html.

The Alfred D. Chandler, Jr., Travel Fellowship

The purpose of this fellowship is to facilitate library and archival research in business or institutional economic history, broadly defined. The program will encourage research concerned to relate historical reality to underlying economic theories of business development. Individual grants range from $1,000 to $3,000, with a total fund of $15,000.

Three categories of applicants will be eligible for grants: 1) Harvard University graduate students in history, economics, business administration, or a related discipline, such as sociology, government, or law, whose research requires travel to distant archives or repositories. 2) Graduate students or nontenured faculty in those fields from other universities, in the US and abroad, whose research requires travel to the Boston-Cambridge area (to study, for example, in the collections of the Baker, Widener, McKay, Langdell, Kress, or Houghton libraries). 3) Harvard College undergraduates writing senior theses in these fields, whose research requires travel away from Cambridge. The deadline for receipt of applications is November 1 of the calendar year preceding that in which the fellowship is to be used. For additional information, write to Walter A. Friedman, Rock Center 104, Harvard Business School, Boston, MA 02163, USA. Or email wfriedman@hbs.edu.

	POSITIONS The University of Leicester School of Management is delighted to be able to offer three PhD studentships, worth up to £17, 845 per year over three years. The studentships are for full-time study only and will commence in September 2010. They will cover tuition fees (at the UK/EU rate only) and include a stipend of £13,620 each year. The successful candidates will also receive a Research Training Support Grant worth £750 each year. One of these studentships is funded through the generous support of the University of Leicester alumni community. The successful recipient of this studentship will be required to engage with the University's Alumni and Development Office to publicise the award and their work with a view to the generation of additional philanthropic funds. We welcome studentship applications from those interested in the critical re-thinking of management, business, and organization - especially in the areas of organization studies, human resource management, marketing and related fields. Suitable applications are encouraged from both UK/EU students and from international students (outside the EU). However, please note that the awards cover the UK/EU tuition fee rate only: international students will need to pay the difference between this and the international tuition fee rate themselves. Further, applicants need to specify which of the studentships they are applying for - either PhD Studentship in Management or PhD Studentship in Management (Alumni). Candidates may of course wish to apply for both categories.
