The American Philosophical Society offers a number of research programs for scholars.
Grants are for research only.
The Society makes no grants for study, travel to conferences, workshops or to consult with other scholars, for permanent equipment, or assistance with publication or translation. Applicants may be residents of the United States, American citizens on the staff of foreign institutions, or foreign nationals resident abroad, whose research can only be carried out in the United States. Specific requirements are given under each listing. Foreign nationals must state the objects of their research, available ONLY in the United States. Grants are rarely made to persons who have held the doctorate for less than one year, and never for pre-doctoral study or research.
