CAPPP Faculty Fellowship Policy Statement
As a part of its commitment to promoting significant research, CAPPP supports a Faculty Research Fellows program. The fellowships are awarded for one academic year in order to assist ladder faculty in initiating, conducting, or completing research on political and policy processes and institutions of the U.S. Fellowships are generally awarded in support of research that has substantial empirical content. We welcome applications from UCLA ladder faculty in all disciplines. The CAPPP Fellowship Policy Statement document describes the fellowship program in full and lays out the obligations of the fellows.
Applications for the 2008-09 Academic Year are due on Monday, February 4, 2008.
