NAS Jefferson Science Fellowships for Tenured Academicians Available—Call For Nominations and Applications
The National Academies is pleased to announce a call for nominations and applications for the 2010 Jefferson Science Fellows (JSF) program. Now in its seventh year, the JSF program is a model for engaging the American academic science, technology, and engineering communities in the formulation and implementation of U.S. foreign policy.
Jefferson Science Fellows spend one year at the U.S. Department of State in Washington, DC, and may periodically travel to U.S. foreign embassies and/or missions. JSF awards are open to tenured academic scientists, technologists, and engineers from U.S. educational institutions. Nominees/applicants must be U.S. citizens and will be required to obtain a security clearance.
The on-line nomination/application and instructions can be found on the Jefferson Science Fellows Web site
Ten Fellows will be selected for the 2010 program. The nomination/application deadline is January 15, 2010, and applicants will be notified of the outcome by early March. The 2010 Jefferson Science Fellows will report to the Department of State on or about August 15, 2010.
