AISEES Fellowships and Travel Grants

AISEES offers fellowships and travel grants to North American and Southeast European scholars who conduct research in the Social Sciences and/or the Humanities in southeastern Europe. 

The annual Lynn Roller Research Fellowship for Senior US and Southeast European Faculty and Scholars (December 31 deadline) offers one $5000 fellowship to a scholar based in the USA and one $3000 fellowship to a scholar based in SE Europe (both at least 5 years beyond their PhD). Their research in one or more of the countries of southeastern Europe will be in the Humanities and/or Social Sciences.

Each year (January 20 deadline), AISEES awards three fellowships of $3000 to graduate students and early postdocs (up to 5 years after PhD) affiliated with an institution in the USA for research in the Humanities and/or Social Sciences that requires travel to one or more of the countries of southeastern Europe.

Each year (Feb. 1 deadline), AISEES awards three travel grants of up to $2500 to southeast European scholars affiliated with an institution in their home country who will present a paper or will organize a session at a recognized scholarly meeting or conference of international importance related to research  in the Humanities and/or Social Sciences in one or more of the countries of southeastern Europe. 

Please note that while membership with AISEES is not obligatory, when two candidates are viewed by the fellowship committee as equal, priority is given to AISEES members (student, regular, or institutional). https://aisees.org/membership/
