Indiana University’s summer 2024 Language Workshop is accepting applications and Winter Break is the perfect time to apply!

Funding is available for Russian immersion programs at Indiana, for online programs in Azerbaijani, BCS, Czech, Estonian, Hungarian, Kyrgyz, Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish, Ukrainian and Uzbek, and for overseas Hungarian programs in Budapest.

New this year: Indiana University and the University of Pittsburgh have coordinated their summer programs so that students of BCS, Czech, Hungarian or Polish can study domestically with one university then study abroad with the other. Indiana and Pittsburgh’s domestic programs cover the same material, but students in Pittsburgh’s program cover the material in 6 weeks in person, at 30 hours of class per week, while students in Indiana’s program cover the material in 8 weeks online, at 20 hours of class per week.

The Postdoctoral Fellowship program invests in future leaders in academia—political scientists, anthropologists, historians, and humanists, among others—who generate big ideas that spark new conversations and deep insights about the region. 

Postdoctoral Fellows are selected on a highly competitive basis and serve a full-time, 9-month term in residence. During that period, we aim to give fellows an intellectual home where they have the time, space, and resources to pursue their research; a community where they can learn from one another; opportunities to engage with others at Harvard; and chances to contribute to the longer-term agenda of the Davis Center. 

During the fellowship, many postdoctoral fellows turn their manuscript into a book, present their research to the Davis Center community, and interact with colleagues at the Davis Center and academic departments at Harvard. As a fellow, you will encounter rich experiences and meaningful connections that will endure well beyond the fellowship year. Past postdoctoral fellows report that full access to Harvard Library and the Davis Center Collection at Fung Library is invaluable to their research.
