Research Fellowship Program

The Sultan Qaboos Cultural Center (SQCC) Research Fellowship Program was established in 2010 to promote and cultivate scholarly research about Oman across several academic disciplines. The fellowship is designed to support PhD candidates and university academics who are US citizens or affiliated with U.S.-based American universities. Each year, the program funds one scholar or team of scholars to carry out research in Oman. The fellowship provides funding of up to $51,000 for the fellow or team of fellows to conduct their research projects. This program aims to advance academic understanding of Oman through rigorous scholarly investigation across multiple fields of study.
