About the Program
Visiting Scholars are selected competitively on the basis of applicants' qualifications and the relevance of their research to DIGS's mission and objectives. The Initiative offers stipends to visiting scholars meant to supplement leave/sabbatical support. The amount of the stipend depends on length of stay. Visiting scholars are given offices at the Dickey Center and are afforded full access to Dartmouth libraries and facilities.
We are especially interested in scholars who can stay for one or more full terms during the regular academic year. Visiting scholars who wish to join us for the summer term (June 20-August 30) are asked to spend at least one additional term in residence. Visiting Scholars are expected to be in residence.
Dartmouth is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer with a strong commitment to diversity. In that spirit, we are particularly interested in receiving applications from a broad spectrum of people, including women, persons of color, persons with disabilities, veterans or any other legally protected group.
Dartmouth is highly committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive population of students, faculty, and staff. We are especially interested in applicants who are able to work effectively with students, faculty, and staff from all backgrounds, including but not limited to: racial and ethnic minorities, women, individuals who identify with LGBTQ+ communities, individuals with disabilities, individuals from lower income backgrounds, and/or first generation college graduates.
