Description
The Botstiber Institute for Austrian-American Studies (BIAAS), an institute of the Botstiber Foundation, supports research and projects exploring the historic relationship between the United States and Austria, including Habsburg Austria. Eligible fields include history, politics, economics, law, and cultural studies. Funding can support on-site research at archives or other facilities holding historical documents, as well as books, dissertations, exhibits, and media projects.
The program emphasizes the significance of proposed work for Austrian-American studies and its value to scholars and general audiences. Projects should be transatlantic in scope, though research may take place wherever necessary. BIAAS also encourages applicants interested in sharing their work through its Austrian-American Blog Series, The Botstiber Podcast, or the Journal of Austrian-American History.
