The Fulbright Scholar Program for Faculty and
Professionals
is offering a variety of opportunities for both area and non-area
specialists to lecture, conduct research, or carry out both activities
in
the Baltic States, Central and Eastern Europe, and Eurasia for academic
year 2007-08. The traditional Fulbright Scholar Program offers
awards that range from 2 to 10 months. Scholars may conduct research
independently or in collaboration with host country colleagues.
Applications are welcome from scholars in a broad range of disciplines
in
the arts, humanities, social sciences and sciences. Opportunities also
exist for professionals in such fields as law, public administration,
conflict resolution, journalism, library science, and education. While
many awards specify project and host institution, there are a number of
open "All Discipline" awards that allow candidates to propose
their own projects and determine their host institution
affiliation. Foreign language skills may be required for certain
research projects, but lecturing awards are in English. The application
deadline for 2007-08 is August 1,
2006 . For
general information about application requirements and staff contacts,
visit the CIES Web site. You may apply online or download application
materials. To request a paper copy or CD Rom please send an e-mail to: apprequest@cies.iie.org.
