SLOAN RESEARCH FELLOWSHIPS in ECONOMICS
Deadline for Nominations: September 16, 2013
Every year, the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation awards $50,000 to each of eight early-career economists. These funds can be used for any research-related purposes and are not tied to a particular project, paper, or investigation.
Sloan Research Fellowships honor early-career scholars of outstanding promise. Of the eighteen young economists who have won the John Bates Clark Medal since 1983 thirteen were former Sloan Research Fellows, including every single winner since 2007.
Candidates must be nominated by either their department chair or by another senior researcher in their field. This year, the economics selection committee consists of Esther Duflo, Jonathan Levin, and Robert Shimer. Results will be announced in February 2014.
Eligible candidates must be a member of the tenure track faculty at an degree-granting institution in the U.S. or Canada, and are normally no more than six years from their most recent Ph.D.
Early career economists who wish to be considered are encouraged to discuss the nomination process with senior colleagues. Attached is a brochure containing information about eligibility requirements and submission procedures. For more details, including a list of past fellows, please visit the Sloan Foundation website at www.sloan.org/fellowships<http://www.sloan.org/fellowships> or e-mail researchfellows@sloan.org<mailto:researchfellows@sloan.org> .
The deadline for nominations this year is Monday, September 16, 2013.
