IASA Emerging Scholars Fellowship Program: “The Emerging Scholars Fellowship Program is a mechanism facilitated by the scholars and IASA and its scholarly journal RIAS – Review of International American Studies for the acquisition of experience and the honing of skills of academic, scholarly and administrative leadership. It is a light-touch mentoring programme that on the one hand, aims to help you gain experience and skills for a career in academic and administrative service and leadership in scholarly associations, and on the other hand, acquaints you with the International American Studies Association and its scholarly journal the Review of International American Studies, and opens for you opportunities to choose to serve in them in some capacity.”
DEADLINE AND HOW TO APPLY
All applicants for the IASA Emerging Fellowship must become IASA members. For this, please
contact the IASA Treasurer at fees@iasa-world.org. The application deadline is May 17, 2024.
The candidates for the IASA Emerging Fellowship apply by providing the necessary information on
themselves, their previous experience/training in academic management and administrative
leadership, and their interest in participating in the programme. These are completed in a
questionnaire and one cover letter written by the candidate and sent to the designated IASA address.
The applications are screened by a committee of IASA (and, as relevant, RIAS), who decide on the
year’s intake of Fellows. As with other acceptance, factors other than the candidates’ suitability may
influence such decisions, and – while some may volunteer to – the committee cannot be expected to
provide constructive feedback to those accepted or rejected.
