The International Affairs Fellowship in Nuclear Security (IAF-NS) at The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) which is sponsored by the Stanton Foundation is offering university-based scholars valuable hands-on experience in the nuclear security policymaking field. It places selected fellows in U.S. government positions or international organizations for a period of twelve months to work with practitioners.
It closes the gap between research and practice and enriches the teaching and scholarship of academics, while also benefiting policymakers by exposing them to cutting-edge scholarly research.
The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) is an independent, nonpartisan membership organization, think tank, and publisher. The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) awards approximately two fellowships annually. The fellowships will be awarded on the basis of academic and professional accomplishments, and on the contribution the fellowship will make to the applicant’s academic career development.
Benefits
The program awards a stipend of $125,000.
