Historical Research Scholar

2 dagen geleden


Amsterdam, Noord-Holland, Nederland Rijksmuseum Voltijd

We are seeking a highly talented and motivated scholar to join our team as a Historical Research Scholar. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to conduct historical research into objects in the Rijksmuseum collection, drawing on these objects as subject material and as sources of historical information.

Research Focus

The Johan Huizinga Fellowship is primarily intended for candidates whose focus is on the historical role and symbolic meaning of objects, on material culture or the societal context in which these artifacts were used. Therefore, please note that this fellowship does not welcome proposals with an exclusive art-historical focus.

Eligibility
  • The Johan Huizinga Fellowship is open to MA graduates, as well as PhD students and post-doctoral candidates.
  • Candidates should have proven research capabilities, academic credentials and excellent command of the English language – both written and spoken. Proficiency in the Dutch language is strongly recommended in regard to consulting primary and secondary research sources.
Fellowship Benefits

The Rijksmuseum will cover visa fees for the Fellow, but not for dependents. Fellowship stipends are awarded to help support a Fellow's study and research efforts during the tenure of the appointment.

Application and Procedure

Complete applications have to be submitted through the online application system. The Rijksmuseum is committed to actively promoting equality, diversity and inclusion.
