Description
The American School of Classical Studies at Athens (ASCSA) offers Advanced Fellowships for returning Members to pursue independent research in Greece for a full academic year, usually for their Ph.D. dissertations. The program supports advanced graduate students in classical studies, ancient Mediterranean studies, Medieval through Modern Greek studies, and related fields whose specific projects require extended residence in Greece.
The named fellowships cover both specialized and unrestricted research areas. Specialized awards support the history of architecture, Mycenaean archaeology, Athenian architecture and archaeology, and pottery studies. Applications are assessed on the need to be in Greece and the feasibility of the proposed work. Fellows conduct their research in Greece, discuss progress with the Mellon Professor throughout the academic year, and present their research publicly.
