Summer Scholars Program
Support is provided for both pre- and post-doctoral scholars for projects ranging from field investigations and collections research to manuscript preparation.
Summer scholar fellowships are awarded to five or six scholars in anthropology and related fields to pursue research or writing projects that promote understanding of human behavior, culture, society, and the history of anthropology. Both humanistically- and scientifically-oriented scholars are encouraged to apply.
Summer scholars are provided with a small stipend, a rent-free apartment and office on campus, an allowance account, library support, and other benefits during an eight-week session, from June 15–August 10. Shorter terms are available.
