The InterAsia Program Transregional Research Junior Scholar Fellowship is aimed at supporting trans-regional research under the rubric InterAsian Contexts and Connections. Its purpose is to strengthen the understanding of issues and geographies that do not fit neatly into existing divisions of academia or the world and to develop new approaches, practices, and opportunities in international, regional, and area studies. Funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, these fellowships help junior scholars (one to five years out of the PhD) complete first books or undertake second projects. In addition to funding research, the fellowships create networks and shared resources that will support fellows well beyond the award period. The Trans-regional Research Junior Scholar Fellowship provides promising scholars important support at critical junctures in their careers. The fellowship should be taken in USA.
Eligibility
Fellowship recipients must hold PhD degree by June 1, 2014 and must be no more than five years out of a PhD program (e.g. all applicants must have received the PhD no earlier than spring 2010).
