[Korean] Fellowship and Award Opportunities - East Asia Institute
Fellows Program on Peace, Governance, and Development in East Asia
The East Asia Institute (EAI) based in Seoul, Korea, invites applications to its Fellows Program on Peace, Governance, and Development in East Asia. Established in 2005 with support from the Henry Luce Foundation, the Fellows Program targets United States-based East Asianists with cutting-edge expertise in political science, international relations, and sociology for an international exchange program with the goal of encouraging interdisciplinary research with a comparative perspective in the study of East Asia. The EAI Fellows present seminars and lectures, based on an unpublished article on current issues submitted solely for the purpose of the Fellows Program, at two or more Member Institutions in East Asia.
Program:
The Program is designed to give the Fellows the flexibility required to bring out the best of their expertise in seminars and lectures. Fellows choose the subjects of their articles, seminars, and lectures within the broadly defined themes of peace, governance, and development in East Asia in order to make the visitation an integral part of their on-going research. Fellows are free to decide how they will divide their time among two or more Member Institutions, giving a seminar and a lecture apiece at each of the sites chosen. The Member Institutions are the East Asia Institute in Seoul, Fudan University in Shanghai, Keio University in Tokyo, Peking University in Beijing, and Taiwan National University in Taipei.
Eligibility:
The EAI Fellows Program is intended for tenured, tenure-track, and untenured East Asianist professors based in the United States conducting research in the fields of political science, international relations, and sociology.
Selection Process:
The representatives of the Member Institutions plus an Advisor based in the United States select EAI Fellows through an annual competition.
Support:
The program provides a total of USD10,000 for each of the Fellows for a three-week visit. The grant covers an honorarium for the article, seminar, and lecture as well as the cost of ground transportation, round-trip economy-class international air flight, hotel accommodation, meals, and a per diem for a total of three-week stay in East Asia [see comments on Application Forms].
