The Academy Scholars Program identifies and supports outstanding scholars at the start of their careers whose work combines disciplinary excellence in the social sciences (including history and law) with a command of the language, history, or culture of non-Western countries or regions. Their scholarship may elucidate domestic, comparative, or transnational issues, past or present.
The Harvard Academy Scholars Program 2011-2012
The Academy Scholars are a select community of individuals with
resourcefulness, initiative, curiosity, and originality, whose work in
non-Western cultures or regions shows promise as a foundation for
exceptional careers in major universities or international
institutions. Harvard Academy Scholarships are open only to recent
Ph.D. (or comparable professional school degree) recipients and
doctoral candidates. Those still pursuing a Ph.D. should have completed
their routine training and be well along in the writing of their theses
before applying to become Academy Scholars; those in possession of a
Ph.D. longer than 3 years at the time of application are ineligible.
Academy Scholars are appointed for 2 years by the Harvard Academy for
International and Area Studies and are provided time, guidance, and
access to Harvard facilities. They receive substantial financial and
research assistance to undertake sustained projects of research and/or
acquire accessory training in their chosen fields and areas. Some
teaching is permitted but not required. The Senior Scholars, a
distinguished group of senior Harvard faculty members, act as mentors
to the Academy Scholars to help them achieve their intellectual
potential.
Post-doctoral Academy Scholars will receive an annual stipend of
$48,000, and pre-doctoral Academy Scholars will receive an annual
stipend of $28,000. Applications for the 2011-2012 class of Academy
Scholars are due by October 1, 2010. Finalist interviews will take
place in Cambridge on December 6. Notification of Scholarships will be
made in January, 2011.
