If available, a room at University’s guest house will be provided.

During their residency the fellows are expected to give public lectures under the lecture series of the ISC and, depending on their qualifications, they will be expected to contribute to the undergraduate teaching at Kadir Has. The language of instruction at Kadir Has is in English. The applicant should send a cover letter, full academic CV, transcript, dissertation research proposal (not more than 8 pages single space), and the names of two references.
