This project will support the Law and Social Science Pre-Dissertation Fellowship and Mentoring Program administered through the Law and Society Association (LSA) and the American Bar Foundation (ABF) in conjunction with a faculty advisory and mentoring board. NSF funding will support a national search to identify and recruit eight academically talented graduate students who will complete two-year fellowships in Law and Social Science in residence at the ABF over the next five years. In their residence at ABF, fellows will have office space and facilities and will participate in all the activities in which ABF dissertation fellows participate. Fellows will receive living stipends to support two years of graduate study in a Ph.D. program in the social sciences. LSA will match each fellow with two individual mentors who are established scholars in the law and social science field. Additionally, LSA will provide collective mentoring in partnership with ABF through a series of workshops, colloquia, and conferences for fellows designed to nurture and sustain intellectual networks between fellows and established scholars in the field. The Fellowships have two broad objectives: to enhance the capacity for rigorous, interdisciplinary, social scientific research on law and inequality, and to increase the diversity of scholars in the law and social science field, with special attention to increasing the number of researchers from underrepresented racial and ethnic minorities.

该项目将支持通过法律与社会协会（LSA）和美国律师基金会（ABF）与教师咨询和指导委员会结合的法律和社会科学前奖学金和指导计划。 NSF资金将支持全国搜索，以识别并招募八名学术才华的研究生，他们将在未来五年内完成ABF的居住法和社会科学奖学金的两年奖学金。在他们在ABF的住所中，研究员将拥有办公空间和设施，并将参加ABF论文研究员参加的所有活动。研究员将获得津贴，以支持博士学位的两年研究生学习。社会科学课程。 LSA将与两位在法律和社会科学领域成立的学者相匹配。此外，LSA将通过一系列的研讨会，校长和会议为旨在培育和维持该领域的研究员之间的知识网络的研究员提供一系列讲习班，座谈会和会议，为ABF合作提供集体指导。奖学金具有两个广泛的目标：增强对法律和不平等的严格，跨学科，社会科学研究的能力，并提高法律和社会科学领域学者的多样性，并特别注意增加代表性不足的种族和族裔少数民族的研究人员数量。
