In the year 2001-2 the Women and Public Policy Program at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University will be awarding a small number of predoctoral and postdoctoral fellowships to talented scholars.
Issues relating to gender are of particular interest.
Outstanding scholars in security affairs from the United States and elsewhere are eligible to apply. Residential fellows will spend an academic year at the John F. Kennedy School of Government, affiliated jointly with the International Security Program of the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs and with the Women and Public Policy Program, working on a project of their choosing. Residential fellows will be expected to participate actively in the intellectual life of the International Security Program and the Women and Public Policy Program, taking part in seminars relevant to their interests, presenting papers, and discussing the work of their colleagues. Postdoctoral fellows are expected to make substantial progress toward a book-length manuscript or its equivalent and predoctoral fellows to make substantial progress toward the completion of their dissertations. Residential fellowships also provide travel expenses to and from Massachusetts, individual health insurance, and institutional support.
