Go international

The Watson School of International and Public Affairs at Brown University aspires to promote a just and peaceful world through research, teaching, and public engagement. Participants in this program will join an interdisciplinary community of scholars engaged in theoretically and substantively important research addressing the most pressing global issues of our time. This is a one-year renewable position, for a maximum of two years with the expectation that Postdoctoral Research Associates will pursue research and participate fully in the intellectual life of the school.

The Hodson Trust - John Carter Brown Library Fellowship supports work by academics, independent scholars and writers working on significant projects relating to the literature, history, culture, or art of the Americas before 1830.

Fellowships are awarded to scholars to support dedicated research, either remotely or in residence, in the JCB’s collections.  Fellowship awards include a stipend, which varies for short and long-term fellowships.  Our fellows will need to pay significant attention to the administrative processes associated with visa sponsorship, health insurance, banking and other details (for international scholars in residence), and establishing a payment process (for all fellows, domestic and international, remote and residential).

The Killam Visiting Scholar Award provides sponsorship of a distinguished scholar who will make significant contributions to academic life at the University of Calgary. A visiting scholar is expected to participate in the research and teaching programs of the host department or faculty, as well as to engage in their own research.

The award consists of a stipend of up to $50,000 (Canadian), plus a research and travel allowance of $3,000 (Canadian). The visit should occur during the winter or fall term of the following academic year.

Weltkrieges, die fast 50 Jahre lang als Besatzungs- bzw. Schutzmächte fester Bestandteil des öffentlichen Lebens der Stadt Berlin waren. Die Berliner Abgeordneten haben die Studienstiftung beauftragt, die vielfältigen freundschaftlichen Kontakte und Bindungen zu Frankreich, Großbritannien, den USA und Russland sowie den anderen Staaten, die einst zur Sowjetunion gehörten, zu vertiefen und auszubauen.
