Summary: Supports emerging scholars in an interdisciplinary community to study contemporary cultural change.
The Fellows Program at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Culture (IASC) is designed to nurture emerging scholars—historians, philosophers, sociologists, ethicists, political scientists, theologians, legal scholars, literary critics, and related fields—as they engage with critical questions of the late modern era. The program emphasizes a vibrant, interdisciplinary intellectual community, bridging the empirical strengths of the social sciences with the interpretive depth of the humanities. Fellows participate in an environment where collaborative inquiry and cross-disciplinary engagement are central to advancing understanding of contemporary cultural change and its consequences.
The program offers both Doctoral Fellowships (supporting PhD students in the research and writing stages of their dissertations) and Postdoctoral Fellowships (typically two years, for recent PhDs whose work aligns with the Institute’s research priorities and colloquies).
