Comments: The Academy Scholars Program identifies and supports outstanding scholars at the start of their careers whose work combines disciplinary excellence in the social sciences (including history and law) with a command of the language, history, or culture of non-Western countries or regions.
Academy Scholars are appointed for 2 years by the Harvard Academy for
International and Area Studies and are provided time, guidance, and
access to Harvard facilities. The competition for these awards is open only to recent Ph.D. (or
comparable professional school degree) recipients and doctoral
candidates. Those still pursuing a Ph.D. should have completed their
routine training and be well along in the writing of their theses before
becoming Scholars; those in possession of a Ph.D. longer than 3 years
are ineligible. Post-doctoral Scholars will receive an annual stipend of $65,000, and
pre-doctoral Scholars will receive an annual stipend of $31,000. This
stipend is supplemented by funding for conference and research travel,
research assistants, and health insurance coverage. Some teaching is
permitted but not required.

Comment: Liebmann Fellowships are to be awarded to doctoral students at any stage of their programs who have outstanding undergraduate records, can demonstrate financial need, and are U.S. citizens. The fellowships cover the costs of tuition and will provide a stipend of $18,000, in order that the fellow may devote full time to his or her program of study. Awards are renewable and can fund students for a maximum of three years, although fellows must request renewal funds for each subsequent year. Awards will be announced in late spring.
