School of Social Science - Economy and Society 2019, USA

Publish Date: May 04, 2018

Deadline: Nov 01, 2018

School of Social Science 2019-20

Each year, between 20 and 25 scholars are selected as Members in the School of Social Science. A completed doctorate or equivalent is required by the application deadline. Memberships are awarded at both the junior and senior levels. They are for the full academic year only unless the scholar is from a country with an academic calendar that is substantially different than the one in the U.S., in which case single-term Memberships will be considered. Scholars may be considered for a second residency if a sufficient amount of time has passed since their initial Membership.

Members are expected only to pursue their own research and participate in the seminars. The theme for 2019-20 is "Economy and Society" but applications outside the theme are also welcomed.  An interdisciplinary dialogue will be fostered and applications are strongly encouraged from scholars across the social sciences, whether or not their research corresponds to the theme.

Funding for Member stipends is individually negotiated, taking into account the applicant’s base salary and the level of sabbatical and other grant support that he or she can secure. In setting compensation, the School attempts to provide half of the current academic base salary for all Members, up to a maximum stipend of $75,000.

Application instructions

Applications must be filed electronically through the Institute’s online application system. They will be accepted beginning June 1. The deadline is November 1. It is expected that the selection process will be completed by early January.

The application requires online submission of a research project, a curriculum vitae, and a writing sample. The sample must be in English, no longer than 50 pages, and in Adobe Acrobat format. A maximum of three letters of reference is requested. 

When you have completed the application and are ready to submit it, remember that you will not be able to make any changes after submission.  It is possible, when relevant, to apply for both the School of Social Science and the School of Historical Studies, but the email address provided must be a different one for each application.
