Visiting Scholar Fellowship 2017

The Centre for Humanities Research (CHR) at the University of the Western Cape (UWC) is pleased to announce the availability of several fellowships to support the residency of leading scholars in the humanities in 2017. We invite established scholars in the humanities and interpretive social sciences to join a team of scholars and artists who, in conversation and collaboration, continue to contribute significantly to redefining the study of the humanities and social sciences locally and internationally. For 2017, prospective candidates will be selected in accordance with the research priorities of the National Flagship Project in the Humanities funded through the National Research Foundation and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
