We have strong links with the Robert Penn Warren Centre for the Humanities at Vanderbit University, Nashville and we provide an annual fellowship for a QUB doctoral student to complete one year of their programme as a visiting graduate fellow at the Centre. 

The 2012-13 fellowship was awarded to Paddy Mc Queen, a post graduate student from the School of Politics, International Studies and Philosopy.  Paddy has just completed his fellowship at the Robert Penn Warren Centre.

The 2013-14 Robery Penn Warren Centre Graduate Fellow is Aoife Laughlin, from the School of History and Anthropology.
