12 months of stipend support (1 fellowship) per year for three years and a contribution to defray costs associated with the selection of fellows.

The Center for Jewish History cultivates multilingual, interdisciplinary scholarship by providing access to the world’s largest collection on Jewish culture and history held outside of Israel and maintaining a vibrant community of Fellows. The NEH Scholar in Residence Fellowship supports high-level original research resulting in collections-based scholarship and offers Fellows opportunities to form meaningful connections with their fellow cohort, other scholars, and with the Center. The Center has hosted NEH Scholars since 2011 thanks to generous previous NEH funding. This fellowship has consistently attracted distinguished scholars who have produced significant publications. The Center respectfully requests renewed support for three further NEH Scholar in Residence Fellowships, one 12-month fellowship each year for three years. Renewed NEH support would ensure that the Center can continue to offer an intellectual home to accomplished scholars through its most prestigious fellowship.
