The Harvard Society of Fellows is a collection of luminaries selected by Harvard University to be given special honors, upon whom distinctive academic and intellectual opportunities are bestowed. Membership in the society is for life.
Junior Fellows are selected by Senior Fellows based on their previous academic accomplishments, and are financially supported for three years to do independent research in any discipline. They are required to stay in residence in Cambridge, MA, for the duration of their financial support.
[edit] Junior Fellows
Ten promising scholars are selected each year as Junior Fellows to give men and women at an early stage of their scholarly careers an opportunity to pursue their studies in any department of Harvard University, free from formal requirements. They must be persons of exceptional ability, originality, and resourcefulness. These Junior Fellows are selected by the Senior Fellows, who with the President of the University and the Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, ex officio, administer the Society. Those elected receive three-year fellowships and a generous stipend without teaching duties or publishing obligations.
