The Levy Economics Institute invites applications from current PhD students, recent graduates and postdocs, and independent scholars to join our community for one of our in-house research and professional development opportunities. Accepted Visiting Scholars have access to office space and library resources, join events at the Institute and the Bard College campus, work with our scholars one-on-one, or enroll in select classes in the Levy graduate program. For those interested in applying to one of these opportunities, please submit a CV, a motivation letter and research proposal, and the preferred timeframe for your research visit to Michael Stephens at [email protected].
Proposals may be considered on a rolling basis, but to allow time for visa processing and/or to ensure priority consideration, applicants are encouraged to submit by April 15th for visits that begin in the Fall semester, or October 1st for visits that begin in the Spring semester.
Space is limited; fees apply.
