The Center for Jewish History offers fellowships to senior scholars through a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. The awards support original research at CJH in the humanities, including but not limited to Jewish studies, Russian and East European studies, American studies and Germanic studies, as well as musicology, linguistics, anthropology, sociology and history. Deadline for applications: December 15, 2010.

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 CJH. Fellowships carry a stipend of up to $50,400 for a period of one academic year. Fellows are expected to conduct original research at the Center, deliver at least one lecture based on the research conducted, actively participate in the scholarly community at the Center, acknowledge CJH and NEH in all publications resulting from research completed during the fellowship and submit a report upon completion of the fellowship describing the experience.
