Call for Applicants - Heather McCallum Scholarship 2012

[Natalie Alvarez]

The Heather McCallum Scholarship

The Heather McCallum Scholarship was established in 1987 by the
Canadian Association for Theatre Research (CATR) in honour of the
former head of the Theatre Department at the Toronto Reference
Library. Every year scholarships totaling $1000 are awarded to
graduate students and emerging scholars (within five years of the
completion of a PhD) in the disciplines of theatre, drama and
performance studies, broadly defined, with a preference given to
topics with a Canadian focus. The scholarships are intended to allow
researchers to enrich their projects in ways otherwise unaffordable,
through travel, access to archives or events, or the purchase of
materials. The final outcome of the project is not restrictive (it may
be a doctoral dissertation, proposed publication, or a new or on-going
research initiative). The scholarship is aimed towards projects not
usually fundable under other subsidy schemes. The committee welcomes
any well-defined project including subsidy for travel to theatre
sites, for consulting special collections, for purchase or access to
film or video materials.

Candidates are asked to submit the following:

1) A letter (1 to 2 pages) describing the project for which assistance
is required.

2) An anticipated breakdown of costs

3) Information concerning other funding received or anticipated,
including applications made to other granting agencies

4) A current curriculum vitae

5) The name of one person who has been asked to send a letter of
reference directly to the Secretary of the Committee. These letters
should comment on the project, on the candidate's scholarship record
and potential.

This year's deadline for applications for the 2012 Heather McCallum
Scholarship is 30 March 2012. Applications should be sent, preferably
via email, to:
