PROGRAM OF THE COUNCIL OF AMERICAN OVERSEAS RESEARCH CENTERS
Deadline: December 8, 2022
The Council of American Overseas Research Centers (CAORC) Multi-Country Fellowship Program supports advanced regional or trans-regional research in the humanities, social sciences, or allied natural sciences.
Fellowships for Multi-Country Research are funded by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs through a grant to CAORC. Please visit https://www.caorc.org/where-we-work for a list of participating overseas research centers.
Eligibility: U.S. doctoral candidates and scholars who have already earned the Ph.D. are eligible. Preference will be given to candidates pursuing comparative and/or cross-regional research. Applicants are eligible to apply as individuals or in teams. It is not required that applicants be affiliated with a U.S. academic institution to apply. Ph.D. candidates must have completed all coursework, examinations and any other program requirements, other than the dissertation, by May 2023. Research must be carried out in two or more countries outside the U.S., at least one of which hosts a participating American overseas research center. The American School is a participating overseas research center.
Duration: Minimum of 90 days.
Terms: Fellowship stipend up to $11,500 awarded by CAORC. Fellows may travel and carry out research between May 2023 and November 2024. Recipients may not hold any other federally funded grant at the same time, such as a Fulbright or NEH Fellowship. School fees, travel expenses, and living expenses are to be paid out of the fellowship stipend by the recipient. A final report is due at the end of the award period, and the ASCSA expects that copies of all publications that result from research conducted as a Fellow of the ASCSA be contributed to the relevant library of the ASCSA.
Application: Check the CAORC website for application and deadline details at https://www.caorc.org/fellowships.
Upon notice from CAORC, successful applicants intending to use the ASCSA will contact the Programs Administrator (Alicia Dissinger, programs@ascsa.org) to coordinate their time at the School.
