Albright Institute of Archaeological Research Fellowships

The Albright is also committed to engaging the next generation and offers internships to undergraduates and recent graduates.

Fellowship terms vary from one to up to 6 months and come with a stipend that is used in part for room/board at the Albright. Applications are open to students and scholars in Near Eastern studies from prehistory through the twenty-first century, including the fields of archaeology, assyriology, anthropology, biblical studies, art history, epigraphy, historical geography, literature, and religion. We also encourage applications from scholars and graduate students in related disciplines, including museum studies, cultural heritage, and preservation, pursuing projects that focus on contemporary engagement with the pre-modern past. The research period should be continuous, without frequent trips outside the country.

Residence at the Albright is required, and no exceptions can be made. The option to accommodate dependents is subject to space available at the Albright. All awards are subject to the availability of funds.

Awards range from $3000 to $12000 for PhD candidates, up to $70000 for postdocs.
