Association for Nepal and Himalayan Studies

Himalayan Studies Fellowship

The Association for Nepal and Himalayan Studies (ANHS) offers Himalayan Studies Fellowships for the support of short-term research or other scholarly projects that will advance knowledge of the Himalaya-Karakoram-Hindukush regions. Projects may be from any scholarly discipline, addressing any aspect of Himalayan Studies. These fellowships support research or other scholarly projects that will advance knowledge of the Himalayan region and support the broad mission of ANHS to promote research, teaching, and outreach activities to increase the understanding of the Himalaya and adjacent mountain regions and to promote scholarly exchanges between the United States and citizens of countries in the region. All applicants must be active members of ANHS or scholars affiliated with an ANHS institutional member. Fellowship-supported activities must take place in the Himalaya, and applications to conduct research elsewhere (including archives in Europe and North America) will not be considered. Awarded fellows will be responsible for obtaining visa and research permission as necessary.
