Art History Fellowships at The Met are an opportunity for scholars from around the world to use the Museum as a place for exchange, research, and professional advancement. The Fellows are fully integrated into the life of The Met and, through weekly gatherings and discussions, take part in research sharing and workshops that explore the inner workings of The Met. Fellows are given a workspace and access to libraries, collections, research facilities, labs, and the time and space to think.

All fellows, with the one exception of Theodore Rousseau Fellows, must be in residence at The Met during the fellowship period. All fellowships must take place between September 1, 2017, and August 31, 2018.

Eligibility

• PhD candidates, postdoctoral researchers, and senior scholars are eligible to apply.
• Junior fellows are those applicants who are currently working on their PhD; senior fellows are those who hold a PhD on the date of application and/or are well-established scholars.
• Applicants submit a specific research proposal that makes use of the Museum's collection and/or resources, and accepted fellows spend the majority of their time working on that project.
