About this position
The Netherlands Institute at Athens (NIA) offers scholarships that support short research stays in Athens of up to three months. The institute is a joint research institute of six Dutch universities and part of the network of foreign archaeological schools in Athens.
These awards are designed for researchers whose work is connected to Greece and for whom a period in Athens will materially strengthen the project. The scheme includes several strands, including support for PhD students and recent PhDs, a study grant for MA and BA/BSc level applicants, and a VVNIA-Goekoop Grant for work on Greek antiquity such as archaeology, epigraphy, ancient history, and philology.
Successful applicants receive access to accommodation at the institute, and the funding options also include travel support or an accommodation allowance depending on the grant type. The scholarship is aimed at a small, specific group of applicants from the participating Dutch universities, making it a focused opportunity for researchers planning fieldwork, archival work, or other research activities in Athens.
The award is intended for research projects that genuinely benefit from being based in Athens and that fit the remit of the relevant grant category.
