The Multi-Country Research Fellowship enables US scholars to carry out transational research in countries across the network of Overseas Research Centers as well as other countries. The fellowship supports advanced research in the humanities, social sciences, and allied natural sciences for US doctoral candidates, who are 'all but dissertation,' and scholars who have earned their PhD or a terminal degree. Scholars must carry out research in two or more countries outside the United States, at least one of which must host a participating Overseas Research Center (ORC). Fellows must work on their research full-time while they are traveling on the fellowship. Team projects are admissible and will be evaluated as a single application. Teams should submit one application for the team project and a CV for each member. Independent scholars are eligible to apply. If you have held a Multi-Country Fellowship in the past, you must wait three years before you are eligible to apply again. Minority scholars and scholars from Minority-Serving Institutions are especially encouraged to apply. A multidisciplinary review committee will evaluate applications based on the following criteria: Contribution to the applicant's field of research; Feasibility of the research design; Applicant's qualifications in terms of having the requisite experience and skills to complete the project; and Rationale for carrying out the project in the proposed host country(ies) and affiliating with the ORC(s)/Contribution to the intellectual scope of the ORC(s).
