FELLOWSHIP- 2005-2006 International Scholar Fellowship Program, HESP/OSI

Call for International Scholars to Teach in Eastern Europe, Former
Soviet Union, and Mongolia

The International Higher Education Support Program (HESP) of the Open
Society Institute is pleased to announce:

The 2005-06 Academic Fellowship Program's International Scholar
Fellowship Program

The International Scholar Fellowship Program (ISFP) invites highly
qualified scholars in the social sciences and humanities from around the
world to teach at selected university departments in Albania, Armenia,
Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Kyrgyzstan,
Macedonia, Moldova, Mongolia, Romania, Russia, Serbia and Montenegro,
Tajikistan, and Ukraine.

AFP welcomes applications from faculty, retired faculty, Ph.D.s, and
advanced postgraduate students in the social sciences/humanities.
Applicants must hold, or be expecting to receive, a graduate degree from
a Western-accredited university, and be applying to teach outside their
country of citizenship.

AFP International Scholars reside in the host country and teach courses
for one academic year (two semesters) at partner universities located
throughout Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union, and Mongolia. In
addition to teaching, AFP Fellows work on a variety of projects within
their host departments, and benefit from the diverse academic network
connecting AFP program countries. Fellowship packages include a stipend,
transportation, accommodation, health insurance and various other
allowances, including professional development and networking funds.
ISFP also offers the possibility non-resident arrangements for Resource
Fellows, in which Fellows visit the host institution for several short
consultations and remain in contact for mentoring and advice between
visits. Details of such arrangements are negotiated during the selection
process.

The one-year fellowships begin in September 2005 and finish in May/June
2006, while non-resident assignments will vary depending on the nature
of the placement. For application forms and guidelines, please see the
