JUNIOR SCHOLARS TRAINING SEMINAR

East European Studies of the Woodrow Wilson Center and the Committee on
East European Studies of the American Council of Learned Societies are
soliciting applications for the sixteenth annual training seminar for junior
scholars in East European studies, to be held August 8-11, 2003, at the
historic Wye Conference Center on the Chesapeake Bay in southern Maryland. 
These scholarships are available only to American citizens or permanent
residents. All domestic transportation, accommodation, and meal costs will
be covered by the sponsors. Graduate students enrolled in a doctoral program
at an American university who have completed all requirements and research
for the Ph.D. except the dissertation (and scholars who received their
Ph.D.s in 1999 or later) in any field of East European or Baltic studies are
eligible to apply.  Russia and the Soviet successor states are excluded.
Participants will present their research, discuss the works of other junior
scholars, and exchange impressions of the state of the field with a group of
senior scholars.

The application must include: a completed application form (which may be
downloaded from www.wilsoncenter.org/ees); a curriculum vitae (which must
include social security number, institution where degree is expected or was
received, title of doctoral dissertation, and name and department of
doctoral advisor); a single page, single spaced statement of the work you
wish to discuss, either the dissertation or another project; and one letter
of recommendation from Ph.D. advisor

Completed applications must be received by April 15, 2003.



SHORT TERM GRANTS
(one month duration)

With funding provided by Title VIII (Soviet and East European Research and
Training Act), East European Studies offers short term grants to scholars
having particular need for the library, archival, and other specialized
resources of the Washington, D.C. area. This program is limited to American
citizens (or permanent residents) at the advanced graduate and postdoctoral
level and to an equivalent degree of professional achievement for those from
other fields. Short term grants provide a stipend of $100 per day for one
month (for a maximum of $3,000). This program requires visiting scholars to
remain in the Washington, D.C. area and to forego other academic and
professional obligations for the duration of the grant. No office space,
however, is provided. 

Topic of research in social sciences or the humanities is limited to the
countries of Central and Eastern Europe (including the Baltic states and the
former Yugoslav nations, but excluding the countries of Russia, Ukraine, the
NIS states or Germany except in a strictly comparative format).

The applicant must submit a concise description of his/her research
project, a curriculum vita, a statement on preferred and alternate dates of
residence in Washington, D.C., and two letters specifically in support of
the research to be conducted at the Center. Members of the East European
Academic Council review applications at regular intervals throughout the
year. Closing dates are December 1, March 1, June 1, and September 1.
Applicants are notified approximately four weeks after the closing date.
