FELLOWS PROGRAM

The Likoudis Legacy Foundation

ABOUT THE LIKOUDIS LEGACY FELLOWS PROGRAM

The Likoudis Legacy Foundation is working towards offering a Fellows Program for scholars desiring to concentrate for 2 to 8 weeks to research and writing on a topic related to the work of James Likoudis. Candidates who are admitted as Fellows are provided a stipend of between $1,000 to $2,000 depending on qualifications and scope of research. The program is still under development, and more specific details are forthcoming.

CRITERIA

The following scholarly criteria will be taken into account when considering an application to the Fellow Program, although the lack of any one should by no means be considered a disqualification:

  • MA thesis or Ph.D dissertation, completed or in-progress
  • Conference presentations
  • College courses taught
  • Peer-reviewed publications, including books and journal articles

SCHOLARSHIPS

Applicants who are accepted as Fellows are eligible for stipends and grants to support their research with the Likoudis Legacy Foundation. A stipend will be provided as a lump sum and will range from $1,000 to $2,000 depending on qualifications and length of participation in the program.

Students who do not live within 50 miles of Washington, DC may also be eligible for a $500 lodging grant, and students traveling from outside of North America may be eligible for a $500 travel grant.

APPLICATION PROCESS

In order to apply to the Likoudis Legacy Fellows Program, applicants must submit, via the Likoudis Legacy Application Portal (coming soon!) the following documents:

  • Complete application form

“James Likoudis was a courageous defender of the faith and a gentle ‘man of the Church’. It is praiseworthy that this new Foundation has been established in his honor, and is working to preserve and build upon his remarkable legacy. I support its efforts in promoting his scholarly contributions…May this initiative enrich the Church’s pursuit of Christian unity.”
