Scholars from Estonia encouraged to submit applications for Stanford Fellowship opportunity
Title: Short-term Research Fellowship Opportunity at Stanford University for Estonian Scholars
Hey there! Here's some exciting news for Estonian scholars! Stanford University is inviting applications for a research fellowship that lets you dive into their extensive collections, tap into their academic prowess, and connect with their global network.
This fellowship is a collaboration between the Vabamu Museum of Occupations and Freedom, Stanford University Libraries, and the Estonian foreign ministry. There are three fellowships up for grabs: the short-term research fellowship for Estonian scholars, the short-term research fellowship for Estonian security and foreign policy experts, and the global digital governance fellowship for Estonian scholars.
So, if you're an early- to mid-career scholar, here's your chance to leverage Stanford's powerful resources and expertise in the study of Estonia and the Baltic region. The application deadline for these fellowships is set for May 29, 2024.
The fellowship spans six to eight weeks and is hosted by the Center for Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies, a vibrant hub for interdisciplinary research on the region. Stanford Libraries, home to one of the strongest Baltic collections in the US, supports the fellowship and facilitates a dynamic program of events and projects led by the curator for Estonian and Baltic Studies.
The fellowship eagerly welcomes proposals on the study of Estonia and the Baltic region. Whether you're a scholar with a freshly minted doctorate or one whose degree was conferred more than a decade ago, this opportunity is open to you.
To be eligible, you must be an Estonian citizen. The grant covers travel, accommodation, food, and other expenses related to your research trip, as well as a trip to the US in 2025 when the fellowship will take place.
Want to learn more? Join Vabamu on May 15 at 3:30 PM for a Stanford-Estonia Symposium. They'll present the scholarships and cooperation opportunities with Stanford University. Head over to the Vabamu website for more details.
Remember, this is just one opportunity that came up in our search. If you don't find exactly what you're looking for, don't hesitate to reach out to specific Stanford departments or explore external fellowships, like Fulbright Estonia and Estonian Research Council grants.
