14 months of stipend support (2-3 fellowships) per year for three years and a contribution to defray costs associated with the selection of fellows.
The Albright Institute is applying for the three-year cycle: 2018-19; 2019-20; 2020-21. Funds would be used to support fellows, in continuous residence at the Albright Institute in Jerusalem. Fellows pursue a research project, present a public lecture to the academic community, and participate in the regular activities of the Institute's scholarly community. Fellows' research projects culminate in a scholarly publication(s). The impact of this research, transmitted through the Albright's hundreds of alumni to institutions all over the world, has had a profound impact on the understanding of the humanities, western civilization, and its origins in the ancient Near East. The Albright Institute supports scholarly work in Near Eastern studies from prehistory through the early Islamic period. (edited by staff)
