Yale LGBT Studies Research Fellowship

Overview

This fellowship at Yale University is offered annually and is designed to provide access to Yale resources in LGBT studies for scholars who live outside the greater New Haven area.    

Scholars from across the country and around the world are invited to apply for the Yale LGBT Studies Research Fellowship. This fellowship supports scholars from any field pursuing research in lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and/or queer studies at Yale University, utilizing the vast faculty resources, manuscript archives, and library collections available at Yale. Graduate students conducting dissertation research, independent scholars and all faculty are invited to apply. Scholars residing within 100 miles of New Haven are ineligible.   

The fellowship provides an award of $4,000 granted for one month, which is intended to pay for travel to and from New Haven and act as a living allowance. The recipient is expected to be in residence for a minimum of 20 days during the period of their award and is encouraged to participate in the activities of Yale University, including programs organized by Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Studies; Women’s Gender and Sexuality Studies; and the Yale Research Initiative on the History of Sexualities.
