Preise und Stipendien

A. W. Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowships and Beinecke Postdoctoral Fellowships are two-year, residential appointments that support research and writing for publication. In their first year, postdoctoral fellows design and direct an intensive weeklong seminar for the Center’s predoctoral fellows in residence, focusing on a topic related to the postdoctoral fellow’s field of interest and with a special emphasis on methodological issues. In the second year, postdoctoral fellows teach a course at a neighboring university. The A. W. Mellon and Beinecke Postdoctoral Fellowships commence in alternating years.

Postdoctoral Fellows receive $55,000 per academic year. They also receive allowances for medical insurance premiums, relocation, and travel. Postdoctoral fellows will receive an office in the National Gallery’s East Building as well as housing, as available.
