Residential Fellowship Program
A Unique Educational Opportunity
The Kirk Center's Residential Fellows Program affords students and scholars the ideal conditions in which they can conduct important research and writing. Fellows write books, essays, reviews, and theses while staying at Piety Hill for periods ranging from a few months to one year. Frequent in-house seminars formalize an already close and stimulating intellectual environment.
The Residential Fellows Program is organized to accommodate and integrate the varying levels of education and experience, as well as the diverse objectives, of those seeking a Center Fellowship. Those accepted to the Center's program are designated as Senior Fellows, Graduate Fellows, or Junior Fellows. The director of the Fellows program works to help each Fellow secure a professional position or pursue an educational opportunity.
In addition to hosting Fellows from some of America's most distinguished academic institutions, the Kirk Center has also welcomed as Fellows scholars and students from Austria, Britain, France, Holland, Germany, Italy, Yugoslavia, Poland, Russia, and the Czech Republic—giving the Center an important international dimension.
