SEESA plans to fund, on a competitive basis, 3 awards of $750 each.

 

Applicants must be undergraduate students or graduate students at either the master's or doctoral level in any field of Southeast European Studies.

 

Students may only receive one SEESA Harrison Travel Grant over the course of their undergraduate or graduate studies.
