THE ASIA FOUNDATION
FACULTY RESEARCH GRANT PROGRAM  IN VIETNAMESE STUDIES

The Asia Foundation, with generous support from the Henry Luce
Foundation, invites faculty of American institutions of higher learning
to apply for a five-month research and curriculum development grant in
Vietnam. This program encourages the development of courses in
Vietnamese studies in the United States, and provides round-trip economy
class international airfare, travel allowance, five-month stipend,
health and accident insurance, and a book allowance.

The successful candidate will be placed as a visiting scholar at an
appropriate research or educational institution in Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh
City. Upon return to his/her home institution, he/she will be expected
to teach the material developed during the five-month field research in
Vietnam.

 The first of three grant periods in the program is scheduled for Spring
2002. Application deadline is May 30, 2001. Applicants must be faculty
members at an accredited American college or university, with doctoral
degrees from institutions of higher education. They must also hold
regular teaching positions in one of the following disciplines:
international relations, political science, economics, sociology, or
Asian Studies.
