SSRC FELLOWSHIPS

[Sibelan E S Forrester]

The Eurasia Program of the Social Science Research Council (SSRC) is
pleased to announce a Fellowship Program for research and training on
the New Independent States, the Soviet Union, and the Russian Empire,
funded by the U.S. Department of State under the Program for Research
and Training on Eastern Europe and the Independent States of the
Former Soviet Union (Title VIII).

Fellowships are offered in the following categories:

Predissertation Training Fellowships for students in their first or
second year of a doctoral program,

Dissertation Write-up Fellowships for graduate students who expect to
complete writing the dissertation during the 2004-2005 academic year,

Postdoctoral Fellowships for recent PhD recipients and junior faculty
wishing to undertake research, and

Teaching Fellowships for faculty members wishing to create and
implement significantly revised or wholly new university courses.

The Eurasia Program will also hold two Dissertation Development
Workshops in Spring 2004.  One workshop will explore the theme of
Governance in Eurasia, and the other workshop will allow participants
to address Russia/Eurasia in World Context: A Dialogue with Middle
East Studies.

In addition to the above-mentioned fellowships, the Eurasia Program
also offers Summer Language Institute Grants to US universities that
offer new or existing summer training courses on the languages of the
NIS.

All applicants must be US citizens or permanent residents, and all
fellowships awarded under this program are contingent upon receipt of
funding from the U.S. Department of State.  The deadline for the
fellowship programs is November 3, 2003.  Deadlines for the workshops
and language grants may be found on the website.
