DESCRIPTION:Deadline submission: 2 January 2017\nDate: March – September 2017\nVenue: Washington\, D.C.\, United State of America\nOrganizer: The East-West Center (EWC) \nThe East-West Center (EWC) accepts applications from scholars and analysts who wish to undertake research and writing on topics of relevance to contemporary US-Asia policy. We are particularly interested in proposals regarding key challenges in U.S.-Asia relations and possible responses and approaches to addressing those challenges. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to: competing economic initiatives in Asia\, regional institutions as well as sustaining U.S. alliances and partnerships. \nThe fellowship finances residencies for a period of three months at the East-West Center in Washington in Washington\, D.C. Exceptional proposals that justify six months will be considered if funds and space allow. While in residence\, the fellows will complete an article or monograph to be considered for publication such as the Asia Pacific Issues series or the Policy Studies series. Selected participants must also publish at least one Asia Pacific Bulletin. The first full draft of the Asia Pacific Issues series or the Policy Studies series manuscript should be completed before the end of the residency period. Fellows must also give a public seminar on their topic. Alternative formats for the publication or public presentation may be considered on an individual basis\, but must be approved by the director of the EWC in Washington. \nThe fellowship includes a monthly stipend of US$2\,500 to $5\,000 (dependent upon experience) while in residence at EWC in Washington\, round trip economy airfare to Washington\, D.C.\, and reimbursement of any applicable visa fees. Residency may begin as early as March 2017 and extend through September 2017. All fellowships must conclude by September 30. Fellows are responsible for securing their own housing and medical insurance coverage during their term of residency. \nRequirements\nApplicants with or without a Ph.D. will be considered; those without a Ph.D. will be considered based on their relevant professional experience. Applicants must be nationals of a country from the Asia-Pacific or the United States (see below for a list of eligible countries) and eligible to receive a fellowship stipend. Successful applications will include a completed online application form\, a full CV\, two letters of reference\, and a policy-relevant research proposal of five pages (double spaced). The proposal should discuss the policy problem or issue to be examined and a tentative hypothesis and arguments. A brief bibliography of the relevant literature is also welcome but not required. Each proposal must make the case that the proposed project can be completed in three months and that a fellowship in Washington\, D.C. would further this research (For example: by interviewing government officials/policy experts\, access to archives at local institutions etc.) \nSource: http://www.eastwestcenter.org/ewc-in-washington/visiting-fellows/asia-studies-fellowship \n

SUMMARY:SIAMESE SUMMER’17
DESCRIPTION:Chulalongkorn University Summer Institute for Thai Studies (CU-SITS) is now offering a one-month intensive course on Thai language and culture. This Siamese Summer course in June is ideal for students and interested persons wishing to learn the basics of Thai as well as the general overview of Thai culture in the immersive atmosphere at the heart of Bangkok. \nLocated in the new\, vibrant city center of Bangkok\, Chulalongkorn University is one of the oldest institutes of higher education. The Faculty of Arts\, where the CU-SITS originated\, prides itself on the careful blending between the old tradition of language and cultural learning and new\, innovative methodologies in the humanities. People participating in the CU-SITS will enjoy the quiet\, leafy atmosphere around the campus’s oldest buildings\, hidden behind the hustle bustle of the city life that is not that far beyond. \nSiamese Summer participants will enjoy our courses carefully designed for those who wish to begin learning more about Thailand. With a four-day week for a period of one month\, students will learn the fundamentals of Thai\, which are offered on two different levels\, as well as general courses on Thai studies\, such as Contemporary Thailand and Thai Buddhism. \nIn addition\, the Siamese Summer program will organize outings to such neighboring provinces as Ayutthaya and Nakorn Pathom\, so that our participants will learn about Thai historical heritage in situ\, where old temples and ruins are still abundant\, each telling specific stories about life and soul in the yonder times. Excursions may also include shorter trips in Bangkok\, such as an evening of Thai Chinese food sampling in the heart of Chinatown and an afternoon of Thai cooking offered by food specialists. \nSource: http://www.arts.chula.ac.th/cusits/ \n
