The University of Notre Dame’s Medieval Institute offers Niarchos Byzantine Travel Bursaries with funding from the Stavros Niarchos Foundation. The program supports travel connected to research in Byzantine Studies, broadly conceived, for Notre Dame faculty and graduate students.
Supported activities include presenting a Byzantine-related paper at a national or international conference, examining a Byzantine manuscript at a foreign research library, and participating in relevant research training at another institution when that training is otherwise unavailable at Notre Dame. These examples are not exhaustive: the program’s focus is the connection between the proposed travel and Byzantine Studies research.
