Fellowships

The Center for Applied Linguistics periodically offers two fellowships as outlined below.

The Charles A. Ferguson Fellowship
The Ferguson Fellowship was es­tablished in 1995 in honor of Charles A. Ferguson,  CAL’s found­er and first director, to allow senior researchers in applied linguistics  to affiliate with CAL as visiting scholars, contribute to  ongoing work in their area of expertise, and further their own  research and writing.  Previous fellows were Bernard Spolsky, Rod Ellis, Joseph  Lo Bianco, Catherine Snow, and Barbara Horvath. The fellowship is awarded periodically by CAL’s President.
