Research Scholar Grants

EES research scholarships are available to American citizens or permanent
residents in the early stages of their academic careers (generally before

This is a residential program requiring visiting scholars to remain in the

obligations for the duration of the grant.

in the social sciences and humanities including, but not limited to:
Anthropology, History, Political Science, Slavic Languages and Literatures,
