Call for Applications: Radcliffe Institute Fellowship Program

The Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard University is accepting applications for its 2016-17 Fellowship Program.

One-year fellowship grants of up to $75,000  will be awarded to individuals working in the creative arts, humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, or mathematics to pursue projects within their respective field. In addition, some support for relocation expenses will be provided where relevant. If so directed, Radcliffe will pay the stipend to the fellow’s home institution.

Fellows receive office or studio space and access to libraries and other resources of Harvard University during the fellowship year, which extends from early September 2016 through May 31, 2017. Visual, film, and video artists may apply  for either one or two semesters. In the event that they come for one semester, the stipend is $37,500.

Fellows are expected to be free of their regular commitments so that they may devote themselves full time to the work outlined in their proposal. Since this is a residential fellowship, fellows are expected to reside in the Boston area during the fellowship period and to have their primary office at the institute so as to participate fully in the life of the community.

The deadline for individual applications in the creative arts, humanities, and social sciences is September 24, 2015. For applications in the natural sciences and mathematics, the deadline is October 15, 2015.
