Return Reference Explanation
PART I, LINE 2: THE SMITHSONIAN PROGRAMS OF RESEARCH FELLOWSHIPS AND OTHER ACADEMIC APPOINTMENTS FOR UNDERGRADUATE, GRADUATE STUDENTS, POSTDOCTORAL AND SENIOR SCHOLARS. THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM IS A COMPETITIVE FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM FOR GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWS, WHO APPLY TO CONDUCT RESEARCH AT THE INSTITUTION WITH RESEARCH STAFF SERVING AS ADVISORS. THE REVIEW PROCESS IS MADE UP OF DISCIPLINARY COMMITTEES COMPRISED OF THE INSTITUTION'S RESEARCH STAFF WHO EVALUATE THE CANDIDATES AND THEN SELECT THE FELLOWS. THERE ARE OTHER COMPETITIVE AND NON-COMPETITIVE FELLOWSHIPS FOR VISITING SCHOLAR AND STUDENT APPOINTEES SELECTED THROUGH THE SMITHSONIAN UNITS THAT GO THROUGH A VARIETY OF OTHER SELECTIONS PROCESSES BEFORE AN AWARD IS MADE. AN OFFICIAL LETTER/AGREEMENT IS PROVIDED TO EACH AWARD RECIPIENT IDENTIFYING THE AWARD TITLE, DATES OF TENURE, STIPEND ALLOWANCES, AND REQUIRED RESPONSIBILITIES FOR HOLDING THIS POSITION. ALL RECIPIENTS EITHER WILL IDENTIFY A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION FOR RECEIPT OF THEIR MONETARY AWARD OR THEY WILL RECEIVE US TREASURY CHECKS. DEPENDING ON THE TENURE OF THE APPOINTMENT, PAYMENTS MAY BE MADE IN A LUMP SUM OR IN PERIODIC PAYMENTS. MOST FELLOWSHIP APPOINTMENTS ARE AWARDED FOR ONE TO TWO YEARS. AT THE END OF TENURE, A FINAL REPORT OF THEIR RESEARCH ACCOMPLISHMENTS IS PROVIDED FOR OUR RECORDS. SMITHSONIAN RESEARCH STAFF WHO SERVE AS ADVISORS TO THESE FELLOWS, STUDENTS AND SCHOLARS ARE USUALLY IN THE FIELD DURING THEIR TENURE. THE INDIVIDUAL SMITHSONIAN RESEARCH CENTERS MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THEIR FELLOWS, AND THE FUNDS ARE MANAGED THROUGH THE INSTITUTION'S CENTRAL ADMINISTRATION TO ENSURE ACCOUNTABILITY. SIMILAR PROCESSES ARE FOLLOWED FOR AWARDS MADE TO ORGANIZATIONS WHOSE ACADEMIC STAFF PERFORM THE RELATED RESEARCH.
