Deadline: February 8, 2022
There are two more weeks to apply for the Auschwitz Jewish Center Foundation Fellows Program for summer 2022. The AJCF Fellows Program provides a unique educational opportunity for graduate students and undergraduate seniors to learn about the Holocaust in situ in the context of Poland’s history and Jewish heritage.
Through travel in Poland for three weeks with leading scholars, including visits to Krakow, Warsaw, Lódź, Treblinka, and Oświęcim (Auschwitz), Fellows gain not only knowledge of the Holocaust sites they visit, but also an understanding of the legacy of the Holocaust in Poland, its effects on collective memory, and complexities surrounding such categories as victim, bystander, and perpetrator.
The AJCF Fellows Program will run from June 26 – July 18, 2022. All program costs, except travel to the program’s start in New York, are covered. The Fellows Program application is due on February 8, 2022. Candidates of all religious, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds are encouraged to apply.
Faculty participation is available through the Faculty Fellows Program.
