Visiting Scholars 2022-2023

The Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies (CES) welcomes 22 Visiting Scholars who will be in residence during the 2022-2023 academic year. These scholars represent many social science disciplines and hail from institutions based in 13 countries.

We invite members of the Harvard community to explore their biographies as well as attend the weekly New Research on Europe Seminar where these scholars will present their research.

Scholars interested in applying for the next academic year are encouraged to review details of the prospective applicants.

Four scholars from Germany and Italy were awarded the Center's John F. Kennedy Memorial Fellowship and German Kennedy Memorial Fellowship.
