Fellowship Details
Short-term fellowships are available for doctoral students at the dissertation stage, and for scholars who hold the Ph.D or an equivalent terminal degree. These one to three month residential fellowships are restricted to work in Yale’s non-circulating collections, notably at the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, the special collections of the Divinity Library, the Yale Center for British Art, the Yale Peabody Museum, and the Yale University Art Gallery. The Morris Steinert Collection of Musical Instruments is currently closed for renovations so we are not accepting applications for this collection during the current 2025 cycle. The ISM connects Fellows with relevant curators and collections to conduct their work. Fellows are encouraged to involve themselves in the life of the university while at Yale.
