THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY

SOUTHEAST ASIAN STUDIES FELLOWSHIPS FOR DOCTORAL STUDENTS

2006 ROUND

Fellowships are available for doctoral students in the social sciences and humanities to do research on Southeast Asia at the Australian National University (ANU). The fellowships, funded by the Luce Foundation, are for three to nine months. Beginning and ending dates are flexible.

The primary objective of this fellowship program is to enhance Southeast Asian studies in the United States by giving selected junior scholars access to resources at the ANU. Another is to bring together Australian and US-based scholars.

Doctoral fellows must be graduate students in U.S. universities who have completed all PhD requirements except the dissertation, are highly recommended, have well developed dissertation topics, and can make a strong case for why a fellowship at the ANU will benefit their dissertation work.

Fellowships may be held in combination with other funding that recipients might have.

The doctoral fellowship includes a grant of A$1,600 per month, one round-trip economy class airfare, and some funding for research. (Fellows accompanied by their family and stay six months or more at the ANU will be entitled to some family support as well.)
