Description
Princeton University’s University Center for Human Values (UCHV) runs this full-time visiting fellowship for scholars across the humanities and social sciences. Fellows devote an academic year to their own research and writing on topics involving human values in public and private life. The program seeks significant scholarship relevant to the Center’s purposes that would benefit from its interdisciplinary intellectual environment.
Fellows contribute actively to the Center’s intellectual life through a weekly seminar with other fellows and Center faculty, where they discuss work in progress. They also participate in Center-sponsored seminars, colloquia, and lectures. The fellowship provides access to Firestone Library and a wide range of University activities and facilities.
