Dr. Viviana MacManus, Assistant Professor of Gender and Women's Studies, has been awarded an exciting fellowship opportunity funded by The Andrew W.
Mellon Foundation and administered by the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation (WW).
The Career Enhancement Fellowships for Junior Faculty aims to increase the presence of minority Junior Faculty (African Americans, Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, Hispanics, Native Americans and Native Alaskans), and other junior faculty members committed to eradicating racial disparities, and breaking down stereotypes and promoting cross-racial understanding in core fields in the arts and sciences. The objective of the fellowship program is to aid the scholarly research and intellectual growth of junior faculty (men and women) and improve their chances for moving successfully towards tenure by offering support for twelve months of research and writing.
MacManus will spend her fellowship year working on her book manuscript. GWST and UMBC are excited to see the results of her research, and we applaud her achievement!
