I would like to carry out fieldwork away from the Cambridge, MA, area. Would that be allowed during the fellowship?

Global History Fellows are expected to be in residence and full participants in the scholarly community during the formal programming period of the Research Cluster (late August through the end of April), with the exception of the winter, spring, and summer breaks. You will be expected to carry out any extensive fieldwork during the winter, spring, or summer breaks. Short trips to attend conferences and other academic engagements are permitted as long as they do not conflict with your Global History obligations.
