Caucasus Research Resources Centers (CRRC) is happy to announce the Carnegie
Research Fellowship Program (CRFP). The program offers exceptional research
opportunities in the United States for scholars from the South Caucasus.
Specifically, scholars in the social sciences and the humanities may apply
for individual, non-degree research opportunities at universities and
institutes in the United States. The program is directed at advanced
researchers that already have a demonstrated track record in research. The
research period lasts up to a full semester (4 months), starting either
September 2009 or January 2010. In 2008-2009, two fellows from Georgia and
one from Armenia have been sent to Harvard University, University of Chicago
and University of Washington to do their research.
Individuals who are eligible to participate in the fellowship program:
** Citizens of Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia.
** Advanced graduate students, university faculty and scholars at any stage
in their careers who have not recently conducted research projects at U.S.
institutions.
** Scholars who hold a "Kandidatskaya" degree or higher, or who are working
towards a "Kandidatskaya" degree at the time of application.
** Scholars who have publications (advanced graduate students may cite
papers presented at academic conferences) in a particular field.
** Scholars who have a level of proficiency in written and spoken English
that is sufficient to conduct independent research and engage colleagues.
** Scholars who are able to receive and maintain a United States J-1 visa.
** Scholars who are able to begin the CRFP in the United States in September
2009, or January 2010.

Applications need to be submitted in a hard copy to your local CRRC office.
Deadline for applications is 5 p.m., April 30, 2009. We suggest applicants
to study details in the guidelines and the application form closely, and in
good time, to avoid disappointment. We will be accepting applications in the
social sciences and the humanities. All costs for the scholars are covered,
including round-trip airfare.
The Carnegie Research Fellowship presents an extraordinary chance to
researchers that can advance their work through a period of self-directed
study in the US. Note that the application process is very competitive,
since a concise research proposal is expected.
