The Council of the Lawrence Henry Gipson Institute for Eighteenth-Century Studies offers research grants in eighteenth-century studies for undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty. The Institute is interdisciplinary; these grants apply to any study that falls largely in the years 1700-1800, in any discipline or program.

The Council of the Gipson Institute also invites PhD students enrolled at Lehigh University who are working on dissertations in eighteenth-century studies to apply for a one-year fellowship to support dissertation research and writing. The recipient will receive a stipend of $23,000. Preference will be given to candidates who expect to complete their dissertations during the fellowship year. The dissertation may be in any field of eighteenth century studies, but should focus substantially on that time
period.
