CAMEL offers a fellowship program for graduate students and postdoctoral scholars at the University of Chicago whose research interests fall under landscape archaeology. In the years the fellowship is offered, it is centered around a particular topic. It includes focused training and mentorship, as well as increased engagement with academic research and public outreach programs at the Institute for the Study of Ancient Cultures (ISAC). The program runs for the academic year, and the call for applications is typically announced over the summer.
The goal of the program is to offer dedicated support to junior and early-career researchers while increasing public engagement and dissemination of archaeological research focused on landscapes. It seeks to act as a profound professional career development opportunity for graduate students and early career researchers through public speaking opportunities, peer-reviewed publications, and networking with scholars and institutions of similar interests.
