Grants and Fellowships Available

The Benson Center funds research and educational initiatives that contribute to critical reflection on the development of Western civilization. All 蜜桃传媒破解版下载 faculty and students are eligible to apply for fellowship positions and grants, though priority grant funding will be given to faculty fellows and undergraduate fellows.

Student Funding

Each year, the Benson Center funds a number of student scholarships and grants. Students serving as Benson Center Fellows are given priority for funding. Students are encouraged to apply to become a fellow and to become active participants in the Center's intellectual life on campus. Fellows receive a stipend in addition to any grant or scholarship awards they may apply for. 

The Benson Center is pleased to invite applicants to the Benson Center Undergraduate Fellows Program.  The program aims to build a community of undergraduate students interested in participating in good-faith dialogs about various timely topics and who desire to learn more about the moral, economic, and political questions of our time. Students in the program have historically come from many different backgrounds and majors, which contributes to the diversity and experience of the fellows. Neither the Undergrad Fellows Program, nor the Center, have a political affiliation or viewpoint to promote; rather, the fellows program is an extension of the Center鈥檚 mission to maintain a wide range of political, economic and philosophical perspectives at 蜜桃传媒破解版下载. Financial support for the Undergraduate Fellows Program is generously provided by the John J. Wehman Scholarship Fund and the Bill Freytag Conservative Thought Fund.
