ARCE-funded fellowships support intellectuals interested in conducting academic research in Egypt on various topics. We invite heritage enthusiasts to carry out research in
diverse fields such as anthropology, archaeology, architecture, fire art, art history, Coptic studies, economics, Egyptology, history, humanistic social sciences, Islamic studies, literature, political science, religious studies and even music. Our fellows have landed prestigious jobs such as directors and faculty of Middle Eastern studies and history departments at leading universities, in the United States and abroad, and curators of Egyptian and Near Eastern art major museums and research institutions.

Decades of close collaboration with the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities (MoTA) and Ministry of Higher Education (MoHE) enable ARCE to provide fellows with
administrative support and advice that eases access to Egyptian museums, monuments, archaeological sites, research libraries, archives and Egyptian institutions of higher education.

Other fellowship opportunities include:

-The Theodore N. Romanoff Prize for doctoral candidates (ABD) and recent Ph.D. recipients (degree granted between 2018-2023) conducting research on the language or
historical texts of ancient Egypt, including the Coptic language.

-The William P. McHugh Memorial Fund grant for pre-doctoral students regardless of nationality to encourage the study of Egyptian geo-archaeology, paleo-archaeology, and
prehistory.

-Research associates who will receive the same administrative support in terms of clearances, permissions and mentoring as ARCE Fellows, but do not receive funding.
