The Seeger Center for Hellenic Studies at Princeton offers postdoctoral fellowships that are awarded annually on a competitive basis. Scholars in all disciplines of the humanities and social sciences are eligible to apply. These fellowships are intended for scholars in Hellenic Studies, with a special emphasis on Modern Greek Studies, Byzantine Studies, or Late Antique Studies, including their relation to the Classical tradition. The goal of this postdoctoral research fellowship program is to advance the scholarship of outstanding Hellenists at an early stage of their career and thus to strengthen the field of post-Classical Greek Studies in the United States and abroad.
Fellowships are residential and, as such, fellows are required to be at Princeton during the term of their appointment, devoting their time to research and writing. They are expected to participate in Hellenic Studies activities and the intellectual life of the University, and are encouraged to meeting colleagues in their respective academic disciplines. During the fall term fellows offer a lecture organized by the Seeger Center.
Candidates must have completed all the requirements for the doctoral degree by February 1, 2016 (including the defense, viva voce, or final public oral examination), and preferably not earlier than June 1, 2013.
