Harvard is committed to fostering the development of talented scholars with an interest in environmental research. The Environmental Fellows at Harvard will work with some of the University’s leading faculty, creating linkages across research disciplines and professional schools, and benefitting from all that Harvard has to offer
SELECTION CRITERIA:
Applicant’s prior academic and professional success and his or her potential contribution to scholarship or practice
Project significance: the potential impact of the research project on scholarship at Harvard and on environmental problems
Diversity: The selection committee will select a group of fellows who will complement those selected the previous year, creating a group of approximately 13 men and women with diverse ethnic and racial backgrounds and a diverse set of academic interests and skills. The ideal group would include fellows working with host faculty members at every one of Harvard’s professional schools and many of the departments overseen by the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. Recipients—and hosts—may include people with degrees in the sciences, economics, law, government, public policy, public health, medicine, design, and the full array of humanities. Their research topics will be equally varied.
Interdisciplinary research projects are encouraged, although this is not a requirement for the fellowship. Candidates with interests in a single discipline are encouraged to apply.
Host’s commitment: the host faculty member’s enthusiasm for the proposed project and fellow, the host’s ability to mentor the fellow, and his or her ability to provide office space and a productive work environment.
SCHOLARSHIP VALUE: The fellowship include a salary of $87,500 per year, employee health insurance eligibility, up to $2,500 reimbursement for travel expenses, and a $2,500 allowance for travel and other professional expenses.
DURATION: 2 years
DEADLINE: January 10, 2024
NUMBER OF AWARDS: The Harvard University Center for the Environment expects to award approximately six fellowships
