SAI 2013-14 Faculty Fellows Program

Faculty from the University of Kentucky are invited to apply for the 2013 - 2014 Faculty Fellows Program in Florence and Rome. A single fellowship will be awarded for 2013 - 2014 and can be arranged for four consecutive weeks during any of the following periods: June 1 - July 31, 2013 or September 15 - November 30, 2013 or February 1 - March 31, 2014.




SAI is offering this opportunity in order to encourage faculty to broaden their teaching and scholarship activities in Italy. No knowledge of Italian language is required. The award includes international air travel, and private one bedroom apartment accommodation for one month (four consecutive weeks) in Florence
or Rome. Faculty who wish to have family or friends accompany them may be subject to a utility fee.

The purposes of the Faculty Fellows Program are to foster a deeper connection between faculty from affiliate schools and Italian institutions and to provide opportunities to faculty for continuing their research and studies. In addition to pursuing individual research interests, the Faculty Fellow will serve as an occasional guest lecturer in their area of study for the SAI program in Florence or Rome. Proposed topics should be submitted as part of the application. The fellowship is individually designed, based on the faculty’s needs and interests.

THE DEADLINE FOR THE 2013 - 2014 FACULTY FELLOWS PROGRAM IS NOVEMBER 30, 2012.
Applications should be submitted by email to facultyfellows@saiprograms.com
