Description
The Early-Career Scholars Research Fund, offered by the History of Economics Society (HES), provides financial support to emerging scholars conducting research in the history of economics. The fund is designed to assist PhD students and scholars within four years of completing their doctorate in undertaking research activities such as archival visits, oral history collection, and similar projects. The goal is to foster new scholarship and enable access to critical resources that may otherwise be financially inaccessible, thereby advancing the field and supporting the next generation of historians of economics.
