The Bowen Scholarship in Canadian History

The Bowen Scholarship in Canadian History


The Bowen Scholarship will provide an award of up to $1500 to a History graduate student working on a research project related to Canada.

The Bowen Scholarship was created in 2005 through a contribution from Drs. Dawn S. And Marshall E. Bowen for the purpose of supporting those who are pursuing a graduate degree in History with a focus on Canada. Dr. Dawn S. Bowen earned her Master’s degree at the University of Maine in 1990. She created the scholarship with her husband because the supportive environment that existed in the History Department and the Canadian-American Center convinced her to choose a career in academics.

Who can apply? Graduate students in the History program working on a subject related to Canada.

When to apply? Deadline: November 29, 2024

How to Apply?

  • Two letters of support from Faculty in the History Department or in Canadian Studies.
