URBAN CENTER TO AWARD GRANTS

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Joint Center For Urban Studies of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University will award two Doctoral Research Fellowships for the academic year 1962-63. These grants, known as the Samuel Andrew Stouffer Doctoral Research Fellowships, are open to all graduate students at Harvard or M.I.T. writing a dissertation on urban life. The recipients of these fellowships will receive a stipend of $5,500 for the year during which time they will be associates of the Joint Center.

The Joint Center will also award two Venezuelan Doctoral Research Fellowships for the academic year 1962-63. Holders of these grants, open to all graduate students at Harvard and M.I.T., will write a dissertation relating to the development of the Orinoco-Caroni region of Southern Venezuela and its new city, Santo Tome de Guayana. For this purpose they will receive a stipend of $5,500 plus travel and cost of living allowances while residing in Venezuela.

It is hoped that these Fellowships will further research in urban and related regional studies, and will lead to the publication by the Harvard and M.I.T. University presses of significant works on urban life under the auspices of the Joint Center.

For information on procedures for application, write to the Joint Center for Urban Studies, 66 Church Street, Cambridge 38, or telephone Mr. John R. Sevier, Assistant to the Director, at UN 4-8060.
