2008 Deadline: March 14th

The Tinker Foundation supports travel expenses for master’s and pre-dissertation fieldwork in Latin America during Summer 2008 (May through August). Applicants who plan to complete an MA or PhD thesis will be given priority over students who plan to utilize an examination option to complete their degree. Tinker applicants must comply with UA Human Subjects requirements.
