Applicants who are searching for fellowship opportunities are encouraged to apply for the 2020 Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study to be taken at Harvard University.

Throughout the period of their fellowship, fellows convene regularly to share their experiences and work progress. Based in Radcliffe Yard- a sanctuary in the heart of Harvard University- fellows join a uniquely interdisciplinary and creative community. The fellowship is an opportunity to step away from usual routines and dive deeply into a project. With access to Harvard’s unparalleled resources, Radcliffe fellows develop new tools and methods, challenge artistic and scholarly conventions and address the challenges faced by the society.
