The Eurasia Grant & Other Funding Opportunities

[Josh Wilson]

Dear SEELANGers! 

 

The School of Russian and Asian Studies (SRAS) is pleased to announce the
launch of The Eurasia Grant. 

Students who combine one semester of Policy and Conflict in the Post-Soviet
Space with a fall or spring semester of Central Asian Studies will receive a
$1000 international relations grant from SRAS. 

They will come to know the geography, people, and problems of the diverse
and broad expanse of Russia, Eastern Europe, the Caucuses, and Central Asia.
They will gain language skills, experience on the ground, and a broad
understanding of how history and government policies can affect modern
societies.

The tentative travel itinerary for the full year will include (TBC):
Moldova, Russia, Georgia, Ukraine, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and
Kyrgyzstan.
