John L. Simpson Memorial Research Fellowship in International and Comparative Studies

Within the broad category of international/comparative studies, the Institute of International Studies has identified five topics that take priority. While special consideration will be given to proposals addressing one or more of these topics, proposals on other themes will also be considered. The five priority topics include:
1. Transnational and global economic processes.
2. International peace and security issues
3. International environmental issues and prospects for sustainable development
4. International demographic trends
5. Comparative development and modernities
All UC Berkeley graduate students in good standing who will formally advance to candidacy (will have satisfied all requirements of the Ph.D except the dissertation) by the Fall of the fellowship term, may apply.  Funds will not be available until the student has advanced to candidacy. While you are welcome to apply for all three graduate fellowships (Bendix, Sharlin, Simpson), please note that the total award amount cannot exceed $12,000.
Application Deadline: Monday, March 19, 2012
