This year, through the generosity of Jim Sopranos, one or more Museum Collections Research Grants will be available to researchers. We welcome applications from a wide spectrum of researchers, from those at the graduate student level (i.e. Masters Degree or PhD candidates) to well-established professional researchers in their field of study. Applications are welcome from researchers from all nationalities. Applicants may also include researchers affiliated with the University of Chicago, including the Oriental Institute.
We allow for the broadest possible selection of potential projects that will heighten the level of intellectual discourse and collaboration within the Oriental Institute. Invitations may be made to share research with faculty, staff, and students through informal presentations during the research visit. We encourage use of our online Integrated Database (https://oi.uchicago.edu/idb/) and online publications (https://oi.uchicago.edu/research/pubs/), and welcome enquiries about our collections (oi-museum@uchicago.edu) in the preparation of applications.
For further information, please see the Oriental Institute Collections Research Grant webpage.
