research fellowships
Academic study awards
Research fellowships are funded positions that support scholars in conducting independent research, typically at universities or research institutions.
Unlike teaching positions, fellowships free recipients from instructional duties to focus on their own projects.
They may support graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, or established academics: She won a research fellowship to study climate patterns in Antarctica.
The term covers everything from year-long grants to multi-year appointments with full salaries and benefits.
