Fellowship at Smithsonian Institution

Fellowship in Conservation of Museum Collections
Smithsonian Institution

The Smithsonian's Office of Research Training and Services (ORTS)
has announced one-year fellowships for recent graduates of masters
programs in art and archaeological conservation or for conservation
scientists to conduct research and gain further training at the
Smithsonian in the conservation of objects in its collections. The
fellowship begins in the fall of 2007. A stipend of $30,000 is being
offered plus allowances.

The prospective fellow must first contact the conservator or
scientist with whom he or she would like to work. If the potential
supervisor confirms that candidacy is suitable, application must be
made through ORTS. Program guidelines, instructions, cover sheets,
and letters for your referees are available at
