American Institute for Yemeni Studies (AIYS) Fellowships Program

Deadline 11/15/2009

Description

The American Institute for Yemeni Studies (AIYS) annually holds three competitions for fellowship programs of in-country residence and research in Yemen. Two of these competitions, one for U.S. citizens and one for citizens of the Republic of Yemen, are funded by grants from the State Department's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.

There is no restriction as to field or discipline, but project funds may only be used to support research costs incurred in Yemen. Projects are not normally funded above $10,000. Applicants may need to secure additional funding for other expenses or for extended research periods, but in the case of multiple awards AIYS reserves the right to modify or cancel its fellowship offer.

There is a $25 processing fee for applications to the U.S. fellowship program; the fee is waived for applicants who are individual AIYS members.
