Call for Applications:

 

Sponsorship of Panels at the Annual Meeting of the Association for Asian Studies

 

The Early Medieval China Group (EMCG) is happy to announce that it will sponsor one or more panels on topics related to the study of early medieval China. The subventions are intended to defray some of the costs of presenting research at the AAS Annual Meeting, including travel and registration expenses. Funding levels are determined during the review process.

 

Proposed panels may extend beyond early medieval China (ca. 2nd–6th c. CE) to include the Han and/or Tang dynasties. All participants in the panel should be or become members of the Early Medieval China Group. Membership also includes a subscription to our annual journal

Early Medieval China. If you would like to become a member, please go to our website at https://www.earlymedievalchinagroup.org/ and follow the link to the membership page.

 

Scholars and graduate students at any stage of their careers are eligible. Officers and board members of the Early Medieval China Group are eligible to participate in applications for panel sponsorships but are recused from the selection process and not eligible for subventions. 

 

Your application should include the following information: 

  • title of your accepted panel; names of all panelists
  • panel abstract and individual abstracts
  • brief CVs of participants
  • statement describing what funding support the applicants expect to receive from other sources, including from their institution
  •  the name of the panelist or organizer who will distribute the funds

 

Please send your application as a single PDF file to antje.richter@colorado.edu by the deadline. Submissions will be reviewed by the Group’s board members. Successful applicants will be notified by email.
