Adam Smith Fellowships
Adam Smith Fellowships
The Mercatus Center's Adam Smith Fellowships are awarded to graduate students attending PhD programs in a variety of fields including economics, philosophy, political science, and sociology.
Awards range from $5,000 to $10,000 and fellowship winners are eligible to re-apply each year of their studies. Smith Fellows are also eligible to apply for conference and research support.
The aim of these fellowships is to introduce students to and encourage them to critically engage key thinkers in political economy that they might not otherwise encounter during their graduate studies. As such, Smith Fellows spend three weekends during the academic year and one week during the summer in residence at George Mason University participating in workshops and seminars in Austrian economics, constitutional political economy, and institutional analysis.
The application deadline for the 2013-2014 academic year is March 15, 2013.
