Pre- and Postdoctoral Fellowships and GRI-NEH Postdoctoral Fellowships 2020 - 2021, Getty Foundation, USA

Getty Predoctoral and Postdoctoral Fellowships are intended for emerging scholars to complete work on projects related to the Getty Research Institute's annual research theme or the African American Art History Initiative. Recipients are in residence at the Getty Research Institute or Getty Villa, where they pursue research projects, complete their dissertations, or expand dissertation for publication. Fellows make use of the Getty collections, join in a weekly meeting devoted to the annual theme, and participate in the intellectual life of the Getty.

Applications for Getty Pre- and Postdoctoral fellowships are welcome from scholars of all nationalities.

Current Getty staff and members of their immediate family are not eligible for Pre- and Postdoctoral fellowships.

Getty Predoctoral Fellowship applicants must have advanced to candidacy by the application deadline and should expect to complete their dissertations during the fellowship period. Successful Predoctoral Fellowship applicants who are awarded their degree after the application deadline but before the fellowship begins, or who receive their doctorate while in residence, automatically become Postdoctoral Fellows.

Postdoctoral Fellowship applicants who received their degree before September 1, 2016, should apply for a Getty Scholar Grant. Please see below for GRI-NEH recipients.

 

The Getty Research Institute offers two residential Postdoctoral Fellowships, made possible through a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH). These fellowships are funded by the NEH and are part of the Getty's annual scholar and fellow program.

Please note that the GRI-NEH Fellowship is identical to the Getty Postdoctoral Fellowships in all but the following details:

• Applicants must be United States citizens or foreign nationals who can document that they have lived in the U.S. for the three years immediately preceding the fellowship application deadline (from October 1, 2017);
  
  
• Applicants must have completed all degree requirements by the application deadline;
  
  
• The NEH stipend contribution for this fellowship is $5,000/month for eight (8) months, and the Getty stipend contribution for this fellowship is $5,000 for one (1) month, totaling $45,000 over the nine-month fellowship. The GRI-NEH Postdoctoral Fellowship also provides a workspace, housing, transportation, and healthcare options.
  
  

While you may not apply for both Getty and GRI-NEH fellowships at the same time, GRI-NEH applicants who are not selected will also be considered for a Getty Postdoctoral Fellowship. Please note that AAAHI Fellowship applicants are not eligible to apply for the GRI-NEH Fellowship.
