Facilities
Guest rooms
NIT has three new and comfortable guest rooms that can be used for a
small fee by those who come to Istanbul for research purposes. The
air-conditioned single rooms have a private bathroom and refrigerator.
Linen is provided. Wireless internet is available throughout the
building. Please e-mail for reservations and rates.
Sponsored research stays
NIT encourages advanced students and PhD candidates from Dutch higher education institutions to spend part of
their studies in Istanbul. Several times each year, a stay of up to
three months is sponsored by the institute by providing free
accommodation and a small stipend. In return, the guest researcher is asked to give a
lecture about his or her research and provide some assistance to the
institute's staff. To apply, a one-page outline of the proposed
research should be submitted, stating also the context within which the
research takes place (institution(s), advisor(s), research project),
and the relevance of doing this research in Istanbul. Applications can
be submitted year-round, but at least two months prior to the desired
period of stay. It is advised to contact the director at an early
stage. Click here to download the NIT Fellowship flyer for 2012.
Support for individual researchers and students
Given its aim to foster research on the cultures and societies of Anatolia
and the Near East, NIT can provide scholars and students with support, to
the extent of its abilities. This can be include consulting on research
applications, helping to establish contacts and tapping into academic
networks, or by organizing meetings or workshops on particular topics.
To a limited extent, NIT can also assist with finding fieldwork
opportunities for students or the organization of study trips. Students
looking for possibilities for study or internships in Turkey or the
Netherlands are referred to
NIHAnkara for information and assistance.
