Announcement of Humanities and International Studies
Fellowships at Stanford University
The Stanford Humanities Center and the Stanford
Institute for International Studies are pleased to
announce a new fellowship program for the 2005-2006
academic year: the Stanford Humanities and
International Studies Fellowships.
These two fellowships are open to junior and senior
scholars who are not U.S. nationals, and have faculty
appointments at universities outside the United States.
Applicants should have a Ph.D. or advanced degree and
must obtain a letter of nomination from their
institution. There is an online registration deadline
of November 30th, 2004 and an application receipt
deadline of January 14, 2005.
Proposals by applicants should focus on themes of
international studies compatible with the mission of
one of the five major research centers at the Stanford
Institute for International Studies: Asia-Pacific
Research Center (APARC); Center on Democracy,
Development, and the Rule of Law (CDDRL); Center for
Environmental Science and Policy (CESP); Center for
Health Policy (CHP/PCOR; and Center for International
Security and Cooperation (CISAC). Eligible areas
include both traditional humanities fields (history,
philosophy, languages, literature etc.) as well as
aspects of the social sciences that employ historical
or philosophical approaches.
Residency for these fellowships runs from September
through June, although fellows may be able to stay for
up to 11 months. Fellows will be offered an office
either at the Center or the Institute, depending on
their area of interest, but fellows will be expected to
take part in the intellectual life of both
institutions. An intellectual contribution, consisting
of participation in a research workshop or seminar, or
offering a course in a Stanford department, is also
required.
More detailed information and down-loadable application
forms (in PDF format) are available at the Stanford
Humanities Center website:
