The Trustees’ Council of Penn Women offers three $5,000 summer research stipends to female faculty or faculty members whose research is centrally concerned with the role of women in society, science or arts and letters.* The Trustees’ Council of Penn Women wishes to assist Associate Professors working for promotion to Full Professor, as well as Assistant Professors seeking promotion to the permanent rank of Associate Professor.

• a TCPW Summer Faculty Cover Sheet (download form at www.sas.upenn.edu/gsws/content/trustees-council-penn-women-fellowships)
• a 2-page summary of the research you wish to undertake
• an explanation of how the stipend will facilitate the research
• a curriculum vitae
• the name of a University reference.
In your application be sure to describe how you will use the award and why it would be particularly useful to you at this time.

Research proposals will be reviewed, and the stipend awarded, through a peer review process.
