Blavatnik Archive Research Fellowships Deadline
July 15, 2025
Fall 2025 Research Fellowships LINK
For the Fall 2025 term beginning September 1, 2025, all applications must be submitted in English by July 15, 2025.
The Blavatnik Archive Research Fellowships provide up to $2500 a term for outstanding scholars to study and disseminate its primary source materials: 145,000 items in 20th century Jewish and world history, with a special emphasis on World War I, World War II, and Soviet Russia.
Generally, the Fellowship is non-residency: researchers will work online, using a high-resolution metadata-rich website that contains over 18,500 publicly available items from the Archive’s content management platform.
If, however, the Fellow’s inquiry leads to other not-yet-public online Archive resources (additional 42,000), these can be made available, as well.
Master’s and PhD students or degree-holders, Postdocs, Faculty, and Independent Investigators from any discipline are invited to apply. The variety and depth of the Archive materials (texts, films, posters, postcards, manuscripts) encourage and support interdisciplinary inquiry.
Selection of Fellows is based on the quality of their proposed research and its relationship to the Archive’s collections.
Depending on the number of Fellows and their research results, bi-annual online discussions and/or annual onsite colloquium may be offered.
