2010-2011 Jennings Randolph Peace Scholar Dissertation Fellowship

Deadline: January 5, 2010

The JR Program for International Peace awards approximately ten Peace Scholar Dissertation Fellowships each year to support the research and writing of doctoral dissertations addressing the sources and nature of international conflict and strategies to prevent or end conflict and to sustain peace. The Peace Scholar Fellowship is meant to assist emerging scholars at one of the most crucial points in their career. Awards may be used to support writing and research at their home institution or for field-work abroad. USIP welcomes proposals from all disciplines, however, they should be consistent with the Institute's mandate and present a research agenda with clear relevance to policy issues. Peace Scholars receive $20,000 for 10 months.

Peace Scholar applicants must be enrolled in a Ph.D. program at a University within the U.S. and must complete all required work toward the doctoral degree, except for the dissertation before the start of the award. Scholarships are open to citizens of any country. The application deadline is January 5, 2010.
