The Australian Museum Research Institute (AMRI) focuses on some of today’s major environmental challenges: climate change impacts on biodiversity, the detection and biology of pest species, and understanding what constitutes and influences effective biodiversity conservation. Our research is underpinned by outstanding scientific infrastructure including extensive natural history collections, wildlife genomics and microscopy laboratories, informatics and a coral reef research station at the northern end of the Great Barrier Reef. The AMF/AMRI Visiting Collections Fellowship is open to researchers working in a field relevant to the AM’s Science Strategy. Applications should address AMRI research priorities.

ASF invites US colleges and universities to apply for support to host a visiting lecturer from Norway. The awards are for appointments of one semester and should fall within an academic year. The competition is open to all American colleges and universities. The award is appropriate not just for Scandinavian Studies departments, but also for any department or inter-disciplinary program with an interest in incorporating a Scandinavian focus into its course offerings. Lectureships should have a contemporary focus with an emphasis on at least one of the following five areas: Public Policy, Conflict Resolution, Environmental Studies, Multiculturalism, Healthcare. Lecturers must be Norwegian citizens who are scholars or experts in a field appropriate to the host department or program. ASF encourages consideration of practitioners as well as academics as lectureship candidates. The host institution is responsible for selecting the lecturer and applying for the lectureship. ASF cannot assist in establishing contacts. All pre-appointment communication with the lecturer as well as arrangements for teaching, public presentations, and housing during the lectureship appointment are the responsibility of the host institution. The selected lecturer is expected to teach one course (undergraduate or graduate level), perform modest public activities (lectures, etc.), and accept invitations to visit other academic institutions or conferences (e.g., the Norway seminar sponsored by NORTANA and the Society for the Advancement of Scandinavian Study (SASS) annual meeting).

The Australian Museum Research Institute (AMRI) Visiting Research Fellowship offers researchers up to $8,000 to visit and work as collaborators in research projects with Australian Museum Scientists. AMRI research is underpinned by outstanding scientific infrastructure including extensive natural history collections, wildlife genomics and microscopy laboratories, informatics, research library, and a coral reef research station at the northern end of the Great Barrier Reef. Research fellows must be nominated by an AMRI staff member who is the leader of a research project. The fellowship is offered to researchers intending to work across any of the museum’s collections including cultural, anthropological as well as the natural science collections. This fellowship is proudly funded by the Australian Museum Foundation. Research Fellows are chosen for the skills, knowledge and/or expertise they bring to a specific project. Proposals must aim to further the museum's research priorities as set out in the 2017 - 2021 Science Strategy. Applications should address AMRI research priorities.

The Wadsworth International Fellowships are intended to provide support of $17,500 for students undertaking study leading to a Ph.D. or equivalent doctoral degree at universities where they can receive international-level training in anthropology. These fellowships are available only to students from countries where anthropology is underrepresented and where there are limited resources to send students overseas for training (United States citizens may not apply). The Wadsworth program's main goal is to expand and strengthen international ties and enhance anthropological infrastructure in these countries. Because of this, priority is given to applicants who have not already begun graduate training abroad, and who are likely to return to an academic position in their home country upon completion of their degree.

Resident scholar fellowships are awarded annually by the School for Advanced Research (SAR) to up to six scholars who have completed their research and who need time to prepare manuscripts or dissertations on topics important to the understanding of humankind. Two nine-month residential Weatherhead Fellowships are available for scholars working in the humanities or social sciences. Scholars with doctorates who plan to write their books and PhD candidates who plan to write their dissertations are eligible. Fellows receive a stipend ($40,000 for doctoral level scholars and $30,000 for PhD candidates) in addition to housing and office space on the SAR campus. Resident scholars may approach their research from the perspective of anthropology or from related fields such as history and sociology. Scholars from the humanities and social sciences are encouraged to apply. The resident scholar selection process is guided by the School’s longstanding commitment to support research that advances knowledge about human culture, evolution, history, and creative expression. SAR views its mission, its scholars, and its attractive campus environment as the connective tissue that supports the kinds of research that underlie its national reputation.
