RIAS Research Grants

The RIAS offers a limited number of research grants for scholars and students based in Europe to visit the Institute in Middelburg. This fulfills one of the Institute’s key functions: to act as a major depository of materials on US history on this side of the Atlantic. Scholars at all stages in their careers (Masters and PhD students as well as scholars preparing a publication) are invited to apply.

The details of the grant are as follows:

  • The maximum grant is €600, amount varies based on travel expenses and accommodation
  • The minimum research visit to the Roosevelt Institute for American Studies is one week
  • Applicants wanting to conduct research for a Master Thesis or PhD must be endorsed by the professor supervising their work
  • Applications should be submitted at least two months prior to the intended visit
  • The RIAS aims to distribute the grants across applicants from different European countries

Applications including the completed form, a description of the research project (1-3 pages), and a CV should be submitted to:
