The Center for Jewish History offers fellowships to senior scholars through a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. The award supports original research in the humanities at the Center. Applications are welcome from college and university faculty in any field who have completed a PhD more than six years prior to the start of the fellowship and whose research will benefit considerably from consultation with materials housed at the Center. Fellowships carry a stipend of up to $50,400 for a period of one academic year. The deadline for applications is December 1, 2011. See the fellowships page for instructions on how to apply, as well as information on other fellowship opportunities, including the Prins Foundation Post-Doctoral and Early Career Fellowship for Emigrating Scholars, the Visiting Scholars Program, Graduate Research Fellowship, Undergraduate Research Fellowship, and the Joseph S. Steinberg Emerging Jewish Filmmaker Fellowship.
