The Eugene and Daymel Shklar Research Fellowships in Ukrainian Studies and the Jaroslaw and Nadia Mihaychuk Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in Ukrainian Studies bring scholars from the international academic community to Harvard for focused research on projects in Ukrainian history, literature, philology, culture, and other related areas of study in the humanities and social sciences fields. In addition to carrying out their own research, fellows participate in the scholarly life of the University, and offer a formal presentation based on original research as part of the Institute’s seminars in Ukrainian studies.
Eligibility:
Individuals who hold a doctorate in one of the fields listed above and who have demonstrated a commitment to Ukrainian studies are eligible to apply. Those individuals who have received their Ph.D. or its academic equivalent (e.g., Kandydat nauk) within the past eight to ten years are especially encouraged to apply.
Stipends:
To support their stay at Harvard, both Eugene and Daymel Shklar and Jaroslaw and Nadia Mihaychuk fellows are provided with a stipend of $3,300 per month to cover the cost of housing, health insurance, and other living expenses. In addition to the stipend, the awards also cover the cost of direct roundtrip travel to Harvard University.
Fellowship Tenure:
Requests for residence for periods from three to eight months will be considered; adjustments in the requested time-frame may be made at the time of award. The average tenure for a fellow has been four months.
