For 2001-2002, the Institute expects to award about twelve fellowships. Priority will be given to proposals that promise to make a timely contribution to the understanding and resolution of ongoing and emerging international conflicts. Proposals in all fields are welcome. Candidates must have an undergraduate degree from an accredited university. Postgraduate education is not required.
Fellowships are open to citizens of any country.
Shorter-term residencies are also available and can begin at any time of the year. The program attempts to match the recipient's earned income during the year preceding the fellowship, subject to a federal pay ceiling. The award includes the costs of health insurance and travel to and from Washington for fellows and dependents.
