CEU History Department offers fellowships for graduate students

[Karl Hall]

The History Department at CEU Budapest offers fellowships for 1-year and
2-year MA programs. The programs start in September 2010. Deadline for
applications is January 25, 2010.

Central European University, Budapest, is the only transnational
English-language graduate school in Europe that is accredited both on the
Continent (in Hungary) and in the United States. 

The History Department is a highly cosmopolitan place of learning, a site of
transnational academic socialization where sophisticated scholarship is
combined with an easy-going atmosphere and social relevance. See
www.ceu.hu/history

The student body is just about half men and half women. In recent years it
included students from all across Europe, Central Asia, the Near and Middle
East, Central and North Americas, even the Pacific. Altogether, students
from over thirty countries have studied here. Virtually all of them receive
grants, fellowships, as well as other forms of needs- and merit-based
financial assistance. 

The faculty, staff, and students are cosmopolitan and multilingual;
permanent and recurrent visiting faculty comes from Austria, Bulgaria,
Germany, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Russia, Turkey, Ukraine, and the United
States. The curriculum is comparative, interdisciplinary, and up-to-date
with the most recent developments in scholarship.

It is possible to concentrate on a number of special subjects or
specializations, especially ones that, from a wider global perspective, may
be regarded as defining the historical identity of the region, such as
Jewish Studies, Ottoman Studies, History of Science, or Religious Studies.

Applications are invited for two MA programs: in one-year (Master of Arts in
Central European History), designed for students who have completed at least
a four-year Bachelor’s degree; and in two years (Master of Arts in
Historical Studies, offered jointly with the Department of Medieval
Studies), designed for those who have completed a three-year Bachelor’s
degree. There is also a PhD program in Comparative History of Central,
Southeastern and Eastern Europe). Apply at www.ceu.hu/admissions

Deadline: January 25, 2010.
