For more than five decades, the Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies (CES) has welcomed Visiting Scholars from Europe, the United States, and around the globe. They are chosen from a diverse and competitive pool of applications from post-doctoral social scientists and historians who are working on modern Europe.
