The American Institute for Yemeni Studies is offering pre- and post-doctoral fellowships for research on Yemen conducted in places other than Yemen (due to a current ban on using State Department-funded fellowships for travel to Yemen). Scholars in all fields of the humanities, social sciences, and from fields in the sciences such as paleontology and botany are eligible to apply. For more information and instructions on how to apply see the fellowships page online.The deadline for applications is March 1, 2011.
