The NYU Abu Dhabi Research Institute invites applications for its first Graduate Student Workshop to be hosted March 6-9, 2022 at NYU Abu Dhabi.*

The Institute welcomes applications from international doctoral students with the opportunity to present and thoroughly discuss their Ph.D. projects related to the Arab world that are currently in the writing stage.

Participants will read and discuss each other's work in addition to presenting their own. NYUAD-based scholars in a variety of disciplines will offer feedback on the students' projects and questions related to research, writing, and professional development. The workshop is also an opportunity to meet, learn from, and develop relationships with colleagues in the field.

The Humanities Research Fellowship for the Study of the Arab World program will cover travel costs to and from Abu Dhabi, accommodation, and meals during the three-day workshop.

Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, a two-page statement about the research, a one-page work plan with the projected date of completion of the degree, a dissertation chapter or the abstract of the chapter that would be presented, and two letters of recommendation, one of which must be from the dissertation advisor. Application deadline: December 10, 2021.
