The BIAA and the RCAC are offering a joint fellowship in cultural
heritage, concerned with the understanding, promotion, and
preservation of the historical and archaeological material culture of
Turkey and the Black sea region with particular reference to specific
sites, monuments, or regions. Successful applicants should have an MA
or PhD qualification in museology, heritage management, or a related
specialization, or have appropriate and comparable professional
experience in these fields.

Depending on the strength of applications, either one junior
fellowship, for advanced doctoral candidates, for 9 months (Sept 15,
2015 - June 15, 2016) or one senior fellowship, for holders of PhD or
equivalent, for one term, either September 15 to February 1 or
February 1 to June 15 will be granted. For terms of RCAC residential
fellowships, please see the regular fellowship announcement on the
RCAC website. Application deadline for the 2015-2016 academic year is
December 15, 2014.

The successful candidate will be resident in Istanbul for most of the
time of the fellowship, but might spend up to two months elsewhere in
Turkey carrying out field work or on-site research relating to his or
her cultural heritage projects. The BIAA/RCAC fellow must visit the
BIAA and give a public lecture in Ankara during the tenure of the
fellowship, and is strongly encouraged to establish close relations
with the BIAA. Some preference may be given to applicants whose
Cultural Heritage proposals relate to past or current British research
projects in Turkey or the Black Sea region. This fellowship is open to
all nationalities.

APPLICATION DEADLINE: DECEMBER 15
