INTRODUCTION :
The Archaeological Institute of America is pleased to announce the availability of a Fellowship for archaeologists employed by the Deutsches Archäologisches Institut (DAI). The purpose of the Fellowship is to encourage and support scholarship of the highest quality on various aspects of archaeology, and to promote contact between North American archaeologists and DAI scholars.

In 2009 the AIA will offer one post-doctoral research fellowship for use during the academic year (spring or fall) at either The Cotsen Institute of Archaeology at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) or The Joukowsky Institute for Archaeology and the Ancient World at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island.

Applications are now invited for the spring semester (January to April 2009). The Fellowship includes travel expenses for the Fellow, residence at university housing (at Brown University) or funds towards rental housing (at UCLA), library privileges, and an additional stipend towards living expenses. Residency will be for a maximum of three months, and no less than two months. While in residence, the Fellow will be expected to give at least one lecture for the host institution.
