THE AMERICAN NUMISMATIC SOCIETY
GRADUATE SEMINAR
1995
The Forty-third Graduate Seminar in Numismatics will be held at the
museum of the American Numismatic Society from June 13 to
August 12, 1995. The purpose of the Seminar is to familiarize
students with numismatic methodology and scholarship, and to
provide them with a deeper understanding of the contributions made
by numismatics to other fields of study.
The seminar is an intensive program of study including lectures
and conferences conducted by specialists in various fields,
preparation and oral delivery of a paper on a topic of the stu-
dent's choice, and contact with the coinages related to that
topic. Curators of the American Numismatic Society and experts
from this country and abroad will participate in the Seminar.
Applications are accepted from students of demonstrated competence
who will have completed at least one year of graduate work in
classical studies, history, art history, economic history, or
related disciplines. Applications are also accepted from junior
faculty members with an advanced degree in one of these fields.
Stipends of $2,000 are available to qualified applicants who are
citizens or permanent residents of the United States or who are
affiliated with colleges and universities in the United States
and Canada. The Society will endeavor to provide assistance with
travel fare from each student's home institution.
Applications are also accepted from outstanding foreign students
who have completed the equivalent of one year's graduate work;
who are affiliated with a museum or institution of higher learning;
and who are able to demonstrate fluency in English. No financial aid
is offered.
Information and application forms may be obtained from the
Society. Applications must be completed by March 1, 1995, and
announcement of awards will be made by April 1.
Grants in support of attendance at the Seminar are made possible
by a generous donation from Mr. and Mrs. Eric P. Newman
