CASBS at Stanford Seeks Fellows

Stanford’s Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences Seeks Fellows

The Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences (CASBS) at Stanford University, is now accepting applications for its residential fellowships for the 2017- 2018 academic year. Online applications will be accepted at the Center’s website through November 4, 2016 for the 2017-2018 fellowship year.

“The Center offers a residential fellowship program for scholars working in a diverse range of disciplines that contribute to advancing research and thinking in social science. Fellows represent the core social and behavioral sciences (anthropology, economics, history, political science, psychology, and sociology) but also the humanities, education, linguistics, communications, and the biological, natural, health, and computer sciences. We are pleased to partner with several entities to provide funding for some residential fellowships whose research projects focus on certain topics.  Our newest partner fellowship programs are the Presence-CASBS and Stanford-Taiwan Social Science fellowships, which join the Berggruen, Mindset Scholars Network, and Stanford Cyber Initiative fellowships offered through CASBS.

CASBS is a collaborative environment that fosters the serendipity arising from unexpected intellectual encounters. We believe that cross-disciplinary interactions lead to beneficial transformations in thinking and research. We seek fellows who will be influential with, and open to influence by, their colleagues in the diverse multidisciplinary cohort we assemble for a given year.”

Call for Applications—Stanford’s CASBS Fellowships

The Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences (CASBS) at Stanford University is now accepting applications for residential fellowships for the 2016-17 academic year.

CASBS has hosted generations of scholars and scientists who come for a year as fellows. Former fellows include Nobel laureates, Pulitzer Prize winners, winners of MacArthur “genius awards,” and hundreds of members of the National Academies. Fellows have played key roles in starting new fields, ranging from cognitive science to behavioral economics to the sociology of urban poverty. They have developed new policies and practices in fields as diverse as medicine, education, electoral politics, Third World development, and crime prevention.

The CASBS fellowship provides an opportunity for scholars to pursue innovative research and expand their horizons while engaging in a diverse, interdisciplinary community.

Online applications will be accepted at the Center’s website through November 6, 2015, for the 2016-17 fellowship year.

CASBS (Stanford) fellowships

The Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University invites applications for residential fellowships during the 2014-2015 academic year. This sabbatical fellowship provides an excellent opportunity for faculty to pursue priority research while engaging in a diverse, interdisciplinary intellectual community. We ask your help in identifying and encouraging applications from communication scholars. The Leonore Annenberg and Wallis Annenberg Fellowship in Communication was established at CASBS in 2004 to fund CASBS Fellows who

  • advance scholarship in the field of communication as it has emerged since the mid-20th century, and
  • are engaged with communication scholarship as their primary field.

We appreciate your assistance in ensuring that outstanding, innovative communication scholarship is a vital part of our multidisciplinary group of Fellows.

CASBS offers a supportive, stimulating, and peaceful environment in which to work. A CASBS fellowship award is considered a career milestone for any scholar, and most recipients report that the year had a transformative effect on later work. CASBS considers applications from scholars in a wide range of disciplines and interdisciplinary areas in the social and behavioral sciences, and humanities.

The application form and guidelines, as well as detailed information regarding the fellowship program, are available here. Please note that applications for the 2014-2015 fellowship year are due by 3 October 2013.
