The Power of Maverick Thinking
This opportunity is for emerging scholars, who are doing research on historical subjects, to apply for a round of consultation and conversations with Patty Limerick on the latent power waiting to be unleashed from their dissertation findings. Here's what we offer:
Work with Patty Limerick
Develop your understanding of Applied History Techniques
Earn a $250.00 stipend*
If you are a Ph.D. student who is working on your dissertation prospectus, this opportunity might suit you. Professor Limerick will give editing advice, one-on-one personal assistance, and offer techniques to implement applied history into your research.
Session One - Limerick will begin with suggestions for enhancing the dissertation’s contributions to scholarship and then shift to identifying the features and qualities of the research that connect the scholar with broader audiences.
Session Two - After the participant has had sufficient time to think about the suggestions that emerged in the first session, Limerick and the participant will lay out a tentative—but entirely plausible—action plan to maximize the visibility and impact of the research.
- Not all consultations may earn a stipend.
