Fellowships for Enlightenment Studies
Every year, the Interdisciplinary Centre for European Enlightenment Studies of Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg offers research fellowships for the study of the Enlightenment.

Among other opportunities, fellows will have the possibility to use the Centre’s library and its numerous primary and secondary sources and to get in touch with experts in the field of Enlightenment Studies working at the Centre. The fellowships are generously funded by the Hamburg Foundation for the Advancement of Science and Culture (Hamburger Stiftung zur Förderung von Wissenschaft und Kultur).
