Grant Overview
Why New Hampshire is a Distinct Location for Dissertation Research Fellowships in History Disciplines
New Hampshire offers a unique blend of historical significance and academic rigor, making it an ideal location for Dissertation Research Fellowships in history disciplines. The state's rich history, coupled with its proximity to major research institutions, creates a fertile ground for graduate students to conduct in-depth research on their dissertations. The Banking Institution's Dissertation Research Fellowship, aimed at supporting graduate students working on their dissertations, particularly those whose research benefits from using historical research collections, is a valuable resource for New Hampshire-based researchers.
The New Hampshire State Historical Society and the Dartmouth College Library are key resources for researchers. The State Historical Society's archives contain a wealth of information on New Hampshire's history, from colonial times to the present day, while Dartmouth College's library holds an extensive collection of historical materials, including rare books and manuscripts. These resources are invaluable for researchers working on topics related to New Hampshire's history, as well as broader historical themes that intersect with the state's experiences.
Geographic and Demographic Features Influencing Research in New Hampshire
New Hampshire's geographic location in the northeastern United States, bordering Canada, and its demographic features, such as its mix of rural and urban areas, distinguish it from other states and provide a unique context for historical research. The state's frontier history and its role in regional trade and cultural exchange offer researchers a distinctive lens through which to examine historical questions. For instance, the state's border with Canada and its historical role in regional commerce make it an attractive location for studying the history of international trade and diplomacy. Researchers can explore these themes at institutions such as the University of New Hampshire, which has a strong focus on regional and international studies.
The 'Granite State's' diverse economy, which includes a strong presence of small businesses and a growing tech industry, also provides a fascinating backdrop for research into economic history and the evolution of industry. This is particularly relevant for researchers looking into the historical development of industries such as manufacturing and tourism, which have played significant roles in shaping the state's economy. Applicants for the Dissertation Research Fellowship can leverage these unique aspects of New Hampshire to inform their research, whether they are examining historical topics or using historical context to understand contemporary issues.
For those researching topics related to historical preservation or the cultural heritage of New England, New Hampshire's numerous historical sites and museums, such as the Robert Frost Farm State Historic Site and the Canterbury Shaker Village, offer valuable resources and inspiration. Furthermore, the state's relatively compact size and the concentration of its historical resources make it an efficient and productive location for conducting research.
