Opportunities from Getty

Getty Villa Scholars are in residence for three months in September–December, January–March, or April–June and receive a USD 21,500 stipend. Getty also states that the grant includes an office at the Villa, research assistance, a travel stipend for relocation to Los Angeles, an apartment in Getty scholar housing, and an available healthcare option. Getty notes that these terms are current as of July 2024 and subject to future change.

Applications are welcome from researchers of all nationalities working in the arts, humanities, or social sciences. Getty describes Scholar Grants as intended for established researchers and professionals who have generally held PhDs for at least five years and/or have strong publication and professional records. Applicants who received their degree after 1 September 2022 are directed to the postdoctoral route, which will not be offered at the Getty Villa in 2027–2028. Current Getty staff and immediate family are ineligible, and prior Getty Residential Grant recipients must observe the six-year waiting period.
