Visiting Fellows Program
The call for Visiting Fellow applications for the 2012-2013 academic year is now closed. Information for the next call will be posted on the website in October.
The Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies Visiting Fellows Program is the largest residential fellowship program in the United States for research on Mexico. Each year the program brings together scholars from the social sciences, history, and related fields.
Visiting Fellows are expected to be PhD candidates who are ABD and have completed a substantial portion of their dissertations. We in particular encourage University of California graduate students to apply to the program. The majority of the fellowship awards are for residential periods between 4 and 9 months in duration. Fellowships generally start at the beginning of the academic year and are not given over the summer months (July-September). Stipends are determined by UC general policies and funding availability.
Visiting Professors and Postdoctoral Students
The Center has a limited amount of funding for faculty researchers from other institutions to be in residence at the Center during their sabbatical leave.The Center no longer offers postdoctoral fellowships as it had in previous years. We invite you to visit the UCMEXUS website to learn about the postdoctoral funding opportunities offered by UCMEXUS/CONACYT. If this funding is obtained, the Center would facilitate your research stay.
