Building on ER's commitment and example, The Eleanor Roosevelt and Human Rights Project offers graduate students a unique opportunity to combine diligent research, rigorous intellectual study and strong commitment to public service. The Roosevelt Fellows will be selected from a national competition of students committed to pursing post-graduate work in history, international affairs and/or women’s studies. They will be expected to bring a strong commitment to scholarship and service to the Project. The fellows will be based in the History Department, supervised by the project director, and must carry a full academic load and work half-time for the project.
