[HISTORY UNDERGRADUATE ADVISORS]

Dear Historians,

Please see below and attached for information about this great online program offered by UC Berkeley!  Applications are due Feb. 16!

This is a fellows program designed for members of historically excluded and under-represented communities that aims to empower a new generation of historians and scholars. Through weekly spring workshops and a summer mentorship, the Program aims to provide students with the skills, preparation, and support they need to both pursue and succeed in a PhD program in History. The Program is open to juniors, seniors, recent college graduates, and current MA students who are considering applying to a PhD program in History. The 2024 Program will take place entirely online and is open to all applicants residing in the United States, regardless of citizenship or immigration status.

Good luck!!

Best,
Tracy

Dear colleague,

We're writing to ask for your help in promoting the Berkeley History PhD Pipeline Program, an initiative that seeks to assist and empower talented college juniors, seniors, recent graduates, and MA students from historically excluded and underrepresented backgrounds who are interested in pursuing a PhD in History at any academic institution.

Over the past three years, over forty fellows from across the country participated in weekly seminars on discrete topics, from what it means to be a historian to how to approach the application process. Past fellows have described our Program as an ‘invaluable experience’ that ‘answered so many questions and relieved many anxieties’ about the prospect of graduate school. Another shared that it was ‘the highlight of [their] week over the last few months.’ Our program has been featured on AHA's Perspectives on History<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.historians.org/research-and-publications/perspectives-on-history/may-2023/the-berkeley-pipeline-program-demystifying-the-history-phd-for-students-from-historically-excluded-backgrounds__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!g32zfrVmTLwJE9NZLbhsHv7zzkkGq475WGShI_s5FacyoK6OwCBDSndofVvtLY4s21WUYUrHN3ggioS2X8Rl75kYO8tcPfc$>. We are excited to meet and learn with a new cohort of future historians.

For 2024, our seminars begin in March and end in May. Over the course of the sessions, fellows can expect to meet Berkeley faculty, PhD alumni, current graduate students, and staff. At the start of summer, we'll pair fellows with a faculty and/or a graduate student mentor for individualized support and to discuss their possible next steps.

We would be grateful if you could share this information and the attached flyer with your colleagues and students. The application for the program can be found at the website linked here<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.google.com/forms/d/1nO8xjhhSAI66r830YEeQnL5wW2QHYVy5IanLu91ww74/edit?usp=drive_web__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!g32zfrVmTLwJE9NZLbhsHv7zzkkGq475WGShI_s5FacyoK6OwCBDSndofVvtLY4s21WUYUrHN3ggioS2X8Rl75kYe1Yf1V4$>. Applications are due at 11:59 pm Pacific on Friday, February 16, 2024.

For more information, please check out our website<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/history.berkeley.edu/pipeline__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!g32zfrVmTLwJE9NZLbhsHv7zzkkGq475WGShI_s5FacyoK6OwCBDSndofVvtLY4s21WUYUrHN3ggioS2X8Rl75kY3fEsd1M$> or contact our committee at history-pipeline at berkeley.edu<mailto:history-pipeline at berkeley.edu>.
