The American Research Institute in Turkey is pleased to offer ARIT fellowships for research in Turkey for the 2025-2026 year. Grants for tenures up to one academic year will be considered; applications for projects of shorter duration, as brief as one or two months, are also supported. ARIT offers research and study facilities as well as connections with colleagues, institutions, and authorities through its branch centers in Istanbul and Ankara. Scholars and advanced graduate students engaged in research on ancient, medieval, or modern times in Turkey, in any field of the humanities and social sciences, are eligible to apply. Student applicants must have fulfilled all requirements for the doctorate except the dissertation by June 2025, and before beginning any ARIT-sponsored research. Non-U.S. applicants who reside in the U.S. or Canada are expected to maintain an affiliation with an educational institution in the U.S. or Canada. Please provide the name, position, and contact information for the three referees from whom you have requested letters of support. Letters of reference should support the value of the proposed research and the applicant's capacity to carry out the project. Graduate student applicants must provide a copy of their graduate transcript. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the American Research Institute in Turkey (ARIT) for more information.
