Subject: CFA: ARISC Faculty Exchange Fellowship Program


The American Research Institute of the South Caucasus (ARISC) is
offering a faculty exchange program for educators from the U.S. and
the South Caucasus. This grant promotes educational and cultural
exchange between professors and teachers at higher educational
institutions in both the U.S. and the South Caucasus (Armenia,
Azerbaijan, and Georgia). The aim of the exchange is to broaden mutual
understanding through the exploration of diverse cultural
perspectives. Given that education plays a role in developing
knowledgeable citizens, the focus of the exchange is on teaching,
including professional development, curriculum enrichment, and
development of pedagogical practices that engage students in critical
thinking. We are interested in candidates at all Higher Educational
settings, from Community College to University and from institutions
based in large cities as well as in smaller towns and centers.



Two faculty members – one from the U.S. and one from the South
Caucasus – will work together and spend time at each other’s
institution. The exchanges are designed to build networks between U.S.
and South Caucasus scholars, and to convey the knowledge generated by
the collaborative project to students. Funding for this fellowship is
provided by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and
Cultural Affairs (ECA) through a grant to the Council of American
Overseas Research Centers (CAORC).



Stage One Deadline: Friday, April 12, 2024

Stage Two Deadline: Friday, May 31, 2024

Award Amount:
