The National Security Education Program (NSEP) David L. Boren Fellowships is a wonderful opportunity that provides support to American graduate students who are pursuing the study of languages and cultures in world regions critical to U.S. interests (including Africa, Asia, Central & Eastern Europe, Eurasia, Latin America & the Caribbean, and the Middle East). It is especially designed to help students pursue valuable study and research overseas. This year, in collaboration with the National Bureau of Asian Research (NBR), up to 10 Bridge Awards will be available for Boren Fellows to work with NBR and add an important policy component to their studies following their return home. Please note that NSEP also includes the Boren Scholarship for undergraduate study abroad and the National Flagship Language Program for advanced language study in Arabic, Russian, Mandarin, Korean, and Persian. The deadlines for awards beginning as early as May 2007 are: Boren Fellowships - January 30, 2007 Boren Scholarships - February 13, 2007 NFLP Fellowships - January 17, 2007 If you have any questions about the National Security Education Program, please contact us at 1-800-618-NSEP or nsep@iie.org. Complete information, including applications for all of the programs, can be found at www.iie.org/nsep.
