Fellowship Announcement

The Next Generation Leadership in Asian Affairs

Dear Colleague:

The National Bureau of Asian Research (NBR) is pleased to announce the
Next Generation Leadership in Asian Affairs Fellowship for 2008-2009,
a year-long program that focuses on bridging the gap between
scholarship and policymaking. The fellowship is open to recent
master's degree recipients and professional degree holders (e.g., MA,
MBA, LLM, JD, etc.) and will be based at NBR's headquarters in
Seattle. Fellows will collaborate with leading scholars to conduct
independent research and share research findings with the policymaking
community in Washington, D.C.

The Next Generation Leadership program, which is in its third year, is
breaking new ground by mentoring and immersing young Asia specialists
from a wide variety of fields and interests to bridge the gap between
the best scholarly research and the pressing needs of U.S. foreign
policy toward a rapidly changing Asia. Each fellow will receive a
fellowship award, as well as a stipend for relocation expenses.
