Early Career Fellowships in Hellenic Studies in Greece and Cyprus 2027-28

About this program

The Center for Hellenic Studies offers up to five one-year fellowships beginning July 1, 2027, for postdoctoral researchers based in Greece or Cyprus whose projects require on-site access to archives, libraries, artifacts, or archaeological sites related broadly to the ancient Greek world. Each fellow receives a $12,000 stipend, Harvard library access, and limited travel support for visits to CHS offices in Nafplio and Washington, DC. Applicants must hold a PhD or equivalent defended before July 1, 2026, be citizens or permanent residents of Greece or Cyprus, and reside there during the fellowship. Applications require a research proposal, CV, writing sample, and three references; the deadline is November 2, 2026, with reference letters due November 9.
