Fellows pursue individual projects—such as books, films, or new frameworks—in an interdisciplinary community spanning the humanities, social sciences, creative arts, science, engineering, and mathematics. The program supports engaged scholarship, offering dedicated time, workspace, and access to Harvard resources.

These interests do not limit eligibility.
