Whitehead Scholar Fellowships, Deadline Oct. 31 2024

Duration: Early September 2025 to end of May 2026.

Eligibility: An established scholar working in any area related to the mission of the School who possesses a significant record of publication and teaching and holds a faculty position at a Cooperating Institution. Applicants should hold the rank of Associate Professor (or equivalent) or higher. Preference will be given to those who have not received recent funding from the School. Previous holders of the Whitehead may apply if the previous term was at least five years prior.

Project: The Whitehead Distinguished Scholar shall pursue research on a project that uses the facilities of the School and enriches its academic program. Whitehead Scholars participate in the academic life of the School in a variety of ways, including: working closely with Regular and Student Associate members of the School during the winter term (late November to late March) on the subject of their expertise, joining School trips and excursions throughout Greece, and offering a seminar or workshop. A list of past Scholars’ work with members is available here on the School’s website. Applicants are encouraged to consult with the Mellon Professor, Denver Graninger, well in advance of the October 31 deadline when planning their proposed contributions to the academic program of the School.

Compensation: Stipend of $40,000 plus round-trip coach airfare to Athens, board at Loring Hall for the Whitehead Scholar (one-half senior rate for spouse and one-half student rate for dependents), School housing, and hotel and transportation on the field trips and excursions that comprise the Regular Academic program.
