The Baldy Center for Law and Social Policy at the University at Buffalo School of Law plans to award fellowships to scholars pursuing important topics in law, legal institutions, and social policy. Apply here.
Mid-career and Senior Fellowships are available for established scholars who wish to work at The Baldy Center, typically during a funded sabbatical or research leave. Awardees will receive a living expense allowance of $2,000 per month during the period of their residence as well as limited relocation assistance. Senior and Mid-career Fellows typically spend one semester in residence, but other terms are possible.
Post-Doctoral Fellowships are available to individuals who have completed the PhD or JD but have not yet begun a tenure-track appointment. Post-Doctoral Fellows will receive an annual stipend of $50,000, up to $2,000 in annual professional travel support, and limited relocation assistance. Post-doctoral fellowships are ordinarily for a period of up to two academic years.
Fellows are expected to participate regularly in The Baldy Center events, but otherwise have no obligations beyond vigorously pursuing their research. Fellows receive standard university research privileges and access to: university libraries; high-speed Internet; computer equipment; office space; office telephone; website space; working paper series; and more. Fellows are encouraged to develop collaborative research projects with faculty members where appropriate.
