The Cyprus American Archaeological Research Institute (CAARI) in Nicosia, Cyprus offers an active fellowship program for both pre- and post-doctoral research. Fellowship opportunities include CAARI-sponsored fellowships as well as several fellowships sponsored by others, such as Fulbright research fellowships and CAORC multi-country fellowships. The CAARI Director and staff provide guidance to fellows on matters related to their research and on facilities available at CAARI and in Cyprus, and facilitate contacts with relevant local authorities and scholars. In addition to their research, fellows are required to give a lecture on their work, participate in roundtable discussions, and/or serve as featured speakers at CAARI symposia.

THE DANIELLE PARKS MEMORIAL FELLOWSHIP
Danielle Parks, author of The Roman Coinage of Cyprus (Nicosia, 2004), directed excavations at the Amathus Gate Cemetery. She first came to Cyprus as an Anita Cecil O'Donovan Fellow. Her death as a young scholar in 2006, deeply felt by the wide circle of her colleagues and friends, is memorialized here by a fellowship designed to open the world of Cypriot culture to young scholars.

This is a fellowship of US $1,000 for a graduate student of any nationality who needs to work in Cyprus to further his/her research on a subject of relevance to Cypriot archaeology and culture. The purpose of the fellowship is to help cover travel to and living expenses in Cyprus. Applications are invited especially from students of Hellenistic and Roman Cyprus. During his/her stay, the fellow is expected to give a presentation at CAARI on a subject related to his/her research. The fellow will periodically keep the Director of CAARI apprised of his/her research activities. The fellow will acknowledge CAARI and the Danielle Parks Memorial Fellowship in any publication that emerges from the research carried during the fellowship. Residence at CAARI is required.

THE HELENA WYLDE SWINY AND STUART SWINY FELLOWSHIP
One grant of US $1,000 to a graduate student of any nationality in a college or university in the U.S. or Canada to pursue a research project that is relevant to an ongoing field project in Cyprus or that requires work on Cyprus itself. The award is to be used to fund research time spent in residence at CAARI and to help defray costs of travel. Residence at CAARI is required.

THE ANITA CECIL O'DONOVAN FELLOWSHIP
Founded in memory of musician, composer, and homemaker Anita Cecil O'Donovan, this fellowship offers one grant of US $1000 to a graduate student of any nationality, enrolled in a graduate program in any nation, to pursue research on a project relevant to the archaeology and/or culture of Cyprus; to be used to fund a period of research time in residence at CAARI and to help defray costs of travel. Residence at CAARI is required.

CARRI/CAORC RESEARCH FELLOWSHIPS
Two fellowships funded by the U.S. Department of State Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs through a grant from the Council of American Overseas Research Centers. The fellowships provide US $5500 each and are designed for scholars in the humanities, social sciences, and related natural sciences who already have their PhDs, whose research engages the archaeology, history, culture, or geography of Cyprus, and who would derive significant benefit from a month’s research time on the island. Recipients will receive up to US $1500 to be used for transportation and an additional US $4000 for research expenses on the island. Particular consideration will be given to applicants whose projects will enable them to include Cyprus in their teaching. A minimum of 30 days residence at CAARI is required. Recipients will present a public lecture or workshop on their research at CAARI during their residency, file a report on their project at its conclusion, and acknowledge CAARI in publications resulting from research done there. Applicants must be U.S. citizens.

SENIOR SCHOLAR IN RESIDENCE AT CAARI
An established scholar who commits to stay at least 30 days in succession at CAARI, ideally during the summer months, and to be available in evenings and weekends to younger scholars working there, in return for 50% reduction in residency rate. Must have PhD in archaeology or ancillary field for at least 5 years prior to visit, be fluent in English (but may be of any nationality), and be committed to mentoring students. Travel and other expenses are not covered.
