The Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies (CES) at Harvard University has awarded Stefan Beljean a 2017-18 Krupp Foundation Dissertation Research Fellowship. During his fellowship year, Stefan will be pursuing research in Europe for his dissertation, “Growing Up Neoliberal. Students Experiences at Upper-Middle-Class Schools in the United States and Germany.”

Krupp Foundation Dissertation Research Fellowships are funded by an endowment provided by Alfried Krupp von Bohlen and Halbach Foundation in 1979. These grants provide support for Harvard doctoral students in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and MIT doctoral students in the social sciences who plan to spend six to twelve months in Europe conducting dissertation research. Research topics focus on political, historical, economic, social, cultural, and intellectual trends, and public policy in modern or contemporary Europe.
