Go international

PLAS awards two postdoctoral fellowships annually to the most promising early career scholars from any discipline who are engaged in research related to Latin American Studies, including the Caribbean and Brazil. The fellowship is a 12-month term starting in the fall, with the possibility of renewal, contingent on satisfactory performance and continued funding. PLAS postdoctoral research associates are expected to devote themselves to research and writing, and may teach not more than one course per semester.

The Program in Latin American Studies is launching an open call for applications for next year’s visiting short-term fellowships. We are looking for advanced or mid-career scholars from any discipline whose research projects focused on Latin America, including Brazil or the Caribbean. Applications will be accepted from scholars in the humanities and social sciences, as well as from established Latin American writers, artists, filmmakers, or architects working on research or creative projects who may benefit from a short stay at Princeton University.

PLAS awards two to four long-term fellowships annually, for one or two semesters, to top international or national scholars, and promising mid-career scholars, in the humanities and social sciences who have teaching experience, as well as established writers, artists, filmmakers and architects who are working on projects related to Latin America and are stellar teachers, who will provide Princeton students with a unique opportunity to study topics that are not regularly offered at the University.

The Young CAS Grant (YCG) is a collaborative initiative between CAS and the Young Academy of Norway (AYF), with support from The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters (DNVA). The programme offers residential fellowships designed to empower and support young researchers in their pursuit of career development and network expansion.

The Pearlstine/Lipov Center for Southern Jewish Culture at the College of Charleston invites applications for its annual research fellowship program. Charleston Fellows will receive research grants to cover the cost of travel and residency while conducting archival research in Special Collections at the College of Charleston.

In 2026, the Foundation will host either one research fellow for a one- or two-week session, or two fellows for one-week sessions.

Each fellowship provides $1,250 per one-week session to support travel and per diem expenses. Researchers will use the Foundation’s John “Jack” Ackerly III Memorial Library at its headquarters in New Market, Virginia, for at least five consecutive days per session.
