for future

found on our
 > website. The list is subject to change in the 2007-08 academic year.

 > The International Scholars Fellowship Program offers two  
arrangements:
 > Nonresident International Scholars share their expertise with host
 > departments on a consulting basis, visiting the institution for  
several
 > short consultations and remaining in contact for mentoring and advice
 > between visits. Nonresident fellows are senior or well-established
 > academics; recent PhD recipients are not be considered.

 > Resident International Scholars live in the host country and teach  
courses
 > for one academic year at partner universities. Fellows also work on a
 > variety of projects within their host departments, and benefit  
from the
 > diverse academic network connecting AFP program countries. The  
resident
 > option is available for placements ONLY in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan,
 > Tajikistan, and Mongolia.

 > Fellowships generally include a stipend, transportation, and  
accommodation.

 > allowances.

possibility of
 > renewal.
