Reves & Drapers' Faculty Fellows
The Reves Center funds and promotes internationally focused research that includes international travel for faculty and students.
We welcome proposals with a strong international dimension either in the topic of the research or the location where the work will be presented. With rare exceptions, successful Reves Faculty Fellowships will include overseas travel and the involvement of students in both the project and the travel.
Student involvement is not a requirement for the Drapers’ fellowship, but this fellowship does include the potential to engage W&M students at institutions in the UK. This fellowship provides support for archival research, with a preference for scholars at the earlier stages of their careers. Preference is also given for locations with proximity to London or at institutions with established links to the Drapers’ Company.
