The Seeger Center for Hellenic Studies at Princeton University invites applications for two postdoctoral fellowships: (1) The Hannah Seeger Davis Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Hellenic Studies and (2) The Mary Seeger O'Boyle Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Hellenic Studies. These fellowships are awarded annually on a competitive basis. Scholars in all humanities and social sciences disciplines 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.

Selected candidates will be required to be in residence in Princeton or the local vicinity and demonstrate to the Seeger Center’s satisfaction the ability to be on campus on a daily basis to fulfill responsibilities relating to in-person participation. During the fall term, fellows offer a lecture organized by the Seeger Center. They enjoy full access to the University's libraries, archival, and computing resources. They are provided a shared workspace at the Hellenic Studies office, as well as access to the Hellenic Studies Reading Room in the University Library. No secretarial services or office supplies are provided. 

Candidates must have completed all requirements for the doctoral degree by February 1, 2023 (including the defense, viva voce, or final public oral examination). Candidates must have less than 3 years of post-Ph.D. work experience. Fellows may not pursue another degree while on this fellowship, nor may they hold any other fellowships, employment positions, or visiting opportunities concurrently with their appointment at Princeton University. Priority will be given to candidates who have not received support from the Seeger Center in the past, as well as to candidates from around the world who bring unique, original ideas and perspectives, to enrich conversations and activities at the Seeger Center. Fellowship awards cannot be deferred to a later term.
