Scholar Rescue Fund (SRF) FellowshipsRegionGlobal Deadline DateRolling Deadline, Applications reviewed thrice yearly The Institute of International Education's (IIE) Scholar Rescue Fund (SRF) provides fellowships for established scholars whose lives and work are threatened in their home countries. These fellowships permit professors, researchers, and other senior academics to find temporary refuge at universities and colleges anywhere in the world, enabling them to pursue their academic work and to continue to share their knowledge with students, colleagues, and the community at large. During the fellowship, conditions in a scholar's home country may improve, permitting safe return post-fellowship; if safe return is not possible, the scholar may use the fellowship period to identify a longer-term opportunity. Application InformationProfessors, established researchers, and other senior academics from any country, field, or discipline may qualify. Preference is given to scholars with a Ph.D. or other highest degree in their field; who have extensive teaching or research experience at a university, college, or other institution of higher learning; who demonstrate superior academic accomplishment or promise; and whose selection is likely to benefit the academic community in the home and/or host country, or region. Applications from female scholars and under-represented groups are strongly encouraged. Fellowship recipients are expected to resume their teaching, lecturing, research, writing, and publishing at an academic institution outside the region of threat. ContactSophie Dalsimer
