PHF Andrew W. Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowship
in the Humanities

The Penn Humanities Forum awards five one-year Andrew W. Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowships each academic year to junior scholars in the humanities who are not yet tenured (may not be tenured during the fellowship year).

The Fellowship carries an annual stipend of $46,500 plus health insurance and a $2500 research fund, requires that the scholar spend the year in residence at the University of Pennsylvania, and is open to international applicants. The Call for Applications is now closed for the 2012–13 fellowship year, when our topic will be Peripheries. The 2013–14 Call will open in mid-May of 2012 and will include a description of the Forum's theme for that year, Violence.
