EEHN hosts visiting fellows each year through the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities (IASH).
Detailed information about fellowships at University of Edinburgh can be found on the IASH website.
Information about the EEHN-IASH Fellowship is here.
Please note that the EEHN-IASH Fellowship portal is not yet open. We hope this will open in December. However, we are still confirming the funding arrangements for the 2026-27 programme.
We recommend waiting until the official call is announced before writing your application or contacting staff at Edinburgh. We will post on our blog and mailing list when the call is open.
Environmental Humanities Visiting Research Fellowships
These Visiting Fellowships of between two and four months are intended to encourage outstanding interdisciplinary research, international scholarly collaboration, and networking activities of Visiting Research Fellows with a specific focus on the Environmental Humanities. Fellows will be expected to contribute to furthering the work of the Edinburgh Environmental Humanities network, to explore where possible collaborations with academic staff in the Edinburgh Environmental Humanities Network, and to take an active part in IASH interdisciplinary events. Fellows will be expected to give two presentations about their research during their stay, one at IASH and one to Environmental Humanities colleagues.
A bursary of £1,300 per month will be offered to successful candidates to contribute towards travel and subsistence costs. Closing dates for application are late February each year for visits in the following academic year.
