卡恩计划奖学金

卡恩计划汇集了18位研究员, 由澳门葡京博彩软件组成, 工作人员, 和学生, 学院师资队伍, 访问澳门葡京博彩软件, to participate as equals to explore diverse areas of research in a collaborative and interdisciplinary setting. Every Kahn project is proposed and designed by Smith faculty members who serve as the project’s organizing fellows. 

长期项目

A 长期 Kahn project develops intellectual fellowship and fosters communities of scholars in which the line between student and teacher is dissolved. 教师 and 学生们 meet weekly during a semester or a year and work together as equals, 围绕研讨会研究问题的复杂问题进行讨论和辩论. 建立社区, fellows share a meal before or after the seminar providing an opportunity to discuss their work in a more informal and relaxed setting.

短期项目

Short-term 项目 provide new contexts for Smith and 学院师资队伍 to explore topics of common intellectual concern that bear on their own research and may serve as seeds for future 长期 项目. Short-term project formats are flexible, but typically take place within an abbreviated timeframe. 短期项目通常包括公共活动, 小组讨论或论坛, 电影放映, 研讨会, 实地考察和其他活动为期两到三天, 一个周末, 或者一系列为期一天的专题讨论会.

项目年度, 组织研究员指导计划的每周研讨会, provide overall supervision for the work of the student fellows (though most of them will be working directly with other faculty fellows or independently), 并与卡恩研究所的工作人员密切合作. 工作人员处理许多细节,使项目顺利进行, including coordinating and publicizing all public events and managing financial and 预算 matters and behind-the-scenes work.

研究员 组织为期一年的项目 从教授一门课程中解脱出来. 计划的前一年对于组织研究员来说可能是忙碌的一年, 因为他们必须帮助选择项目成员, 定期与他们和卡恩咨询委员会会面, and work with the Kahn project manager to decide on the scope and timing of public events. Organizing fellows may elect to take their one-semester course release during the planning year instead of during the project year. 在一个项目结束时, 组织研究员必须提交一份相当详细的报告以供研究所记录, 包括改善未来卡恩项目运作的建议.

教师 fellows on a project participate in seminar 会议 for two hours each week with student fellows at the Kahn Institute.

在这些会议期间, organizing and faculty fellows develop their research and critique one another’s work in progress. 研究员也可以邀请澳门葡京博彩软件, 艺术家和其他人分享他们的研究和参与活动, 比如电影, 向学院和更广泛的社区开放的讲座和表演.

研究员hip is fostered at a weekly lunch or dinner for all faculty and student fellows in a project. 在一般情况下, the meal immediately follows the colloquium meeting and provides an opportunity for fellows to get to know one another and to discuss their interests and the day’s topic in a more informal setting.

Each 长期 project typically includes approximately 14 faculty fellows and four student fellows. One goal of 长期 项目 is to foster communities of scholars in which faculty 和学生 participate as equals, 学生和老师之间的界限在哪里消失.

学生奖学金

Kahn 学生们 research their own independent question within the broader project theme. 他们与教职员平等地参加每周的研讨会, 餐, 以及贯穿整个项目的特殊活动. 

Most students will not have had much previous experience defining a research topic or doing original research, 因此,研究所为学生设立了一个研究指导项目. It is critical that student fellows participate in the orientation activities in the spring and return to campus a few days early in the fall to attend an orientation workshop that takes place before classes resume.
