On September 9th, 2010 from 2:00-3:00 p.m. in the Great Room in the Honors College a representative from the Institute of International Education will be speaking with interested students about the David L. Boren Scholarships and Fellowships for the 2011-12 academic year.
Boren Awards provide a unique funding opportunity for U.S. students to study world regions critical to U.S. interests (including Africa, Asia, Central & Eastern Europe, Eurasia, Latin America, and the Middle East). The countries of Western Europe, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand are excluded.
The Boren Scholarship provides opportunities for undergraduate students to study in countries that are generally underrepresented in study abroad. Boren Scholars are awarded up to $20,000 for an academic year.
The Boren Fellowship allows graduate students to add an important international and language component to their graduate studies. Boren Fellows can be awarded up to $30,000.
Additional information on preferred geographic regions, languages, fields of study and application procedures can be found at www.borenawards.org.
