UC Berkeley Scholars Workshop. April 17 - May 1, 2010
The Institute of Slavic, East European, and Eurasian Studies (ISEEES) at the University of California, Berkeley (UCB), in collaboration with the Caucasus Research Resource Centers (CRRC), is soliciting proposals from scholars in the Social Sciences and History from Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia to participate in a two-week workshop at UCB from April 17 to May 1, 2010. The workshop is funded by a generous grant from the Carnegie Corporation of New York. A total of five scholars from the South Caucasus ("Carnegie Fellows") will be brought to UCB for an intensive review of the key literature, theoretical approaches, and methods employed in a particular field of scholarship. Each Carnegie Fellow will work with a paired UCB faculty member and graduate student with knowledge of the Carnegie Fellow's field theme to develop undergraduate and graduate syllabi and teaching materials, explore innovative teaching and research techniques and technologies, and prepare a field survey (with a literature review) for use by other Carnegie Fellows and scholars from the South Caucasus. The language of the workshop will be English. Airfare, hotel, and meal expenses will be paid for by ISEEES. In addition, ISEEES will either pay for or reimburse each Carnegie Scholar for up to $600 in expenses relating to purchasing, copying, and posting teaching materials. ISEEES will provide letters of invitation, but each Carnegie Fellow will be responsible for obtaining a US visa with assistance from the local CRRC offices in Baku, Tbilisi, and Yerevan. Who is eligible to participate? • Citizens of Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia • Scholars who hold a "Kandidatskaya" degree or higher • Scholars who have a level of proficiency in written and spoken English that is sufficient to conduct independent research and engage in a debate. How to apply/documents to submit • Completed application form • A statement of purpose (the applicant's research and teaching experience and future plans, not exceeding 3 pages) • A sample of scholarly research (not exceeding 10 pages) • Curriculum Vitae Application forms can be found at http://iseees.berkeley.edu/caseproject.html#app. The website also has a detailed description of the purpose and design of the workshop. Applicants should be sure to read the Program Description to ensure that they are familiar with the design and requirements of the program. Applications should be submitted via email to applications@crrccenters.org by February 12, 2010.
