The Open Society Institute (OSI) is accepting applications for the International Scholars Fellowship Program, whic selects highly qualified scholars in the social sciences and humanities to assist Academic Fellowship Program partner departments where Returning Scholars are placed. The International Scholars advise on the overall reform agenda of the departments and share the latest developments in the respective disciplines, and beyond, with departmental colleagues; collaborate on the introduction of new courses; and encourage the development of skills that are crucial for academic success. One of the greatest, and most needed, contributions that International Scholars make is the expert advice they offer on curriculum development and academic planning.
International Scholars Fellowships generally include a modest stipend, transportation, accommodation, and various other allowances. Fellows may re-apply the following year. Fellowships begin in August or September 2011 and last one academic year.
The program accepts applications for placements in Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Kyrgyzstan, Macedonia, Moldova, Mongolia, Montenegro, Russia, Serbia, Tajikistan, and Ukraine.
The deadline to submit applications is 11 April 2011. For more information, visit this link.
