   The Adelle and Erwin Tomash Fellowship in the History of Information
   Technology

The Charles Babbage Institute is accepting applications for the
2020-2021 Adelle and Erwin Tomash Graduate Fellowship. The fellowship
will be awarded to a graduate student for doctoral dissertation research
in the history of computing.

The fellowship may be held at the recipient's home academic institution,
the Charles Babbage Institute, or any other location with appropriate
research facilities. The stipend is $14,000. It is for students who have
completed all requirements for the doctoral degree except the research
and writing of the dissertation. Tomash Fellowship recipients must
remain students in good standing throughout the term of their
fellowship, but there is no restriction on holding other fellowships,
scholarships, or awards concurrent to the Tomash Fellowship.

Preference will be given to applicants indicating a need to use CBI
materials, planning research in residence at CBI, and willing to make a
brief presentation of their research findings to CBI staff and HSTM
grad. students and faculty. Questions pertaining to collection content
and access can be directed to Amanda Wick, CBI Interim Archivist, at
abwick@umn.edu.


Applicants should send to CBI a curriculum vitae and a five-page
(single-spaced) statement and justification of the research project
including a discussion of methods, research materials, evidence of
faculty support for the project, and bibliography (bibliography does not
count toward page count). Applicants should also arrange for three
letters of reference and certified copies of graduate school transcripts
to be sent directly to CBI.


       All materials must be received by CBI no later than January 15, 2020.

Application materials should be sent to cbi@umn.edu. A confirmation
email will be sent once your application has been received.

Alternatively, applications may be mailed to (and must have a postmark
date of Jan. 15, 2020 or earlier):
