Founded in 1968 to facilitate work in and the study of Jordan and the Middle East by American scholars, the American Center of Research (“ACOR”; formerly American Center of Oriental Research) runs thriving fellowship programs for scholars at all stages of their careers. During the past 54 years, we have awarded more than 1,000 fellowships, with 33 opportunities available in 2022–2023. Through the ongoing support of NEH’s Fellowship Programs at Independent Research Institutions, ACOR is able to support significant scholarly research and publication in the humanities regarding Jordan and the Middle East. ACOR requests a three-year grant to award ten-person-months of fellowship per year.
