It will help them prepare for careers in fields as diverse as foundations, healthcare, human services, community development, education, the arts and the environment.

Students will have opportunities to interact with national nonprofit leaders, complete a capstone learning experience and participate in internships and service learning projects. They will learn firsthand from Indiana University's Philanthropic Studies faculty members, many of whom are among the nation's leading experts and researchers in philanthropy. The Center on Philanthropy at IUPUI has pioneered the field of Philanthropic Studies and created the world's first Master of Arts and Ph.D. degrees in Philanthropic Studies.

INTERNATIONAL SECURITY STUDIES AT YALE 2010-11 PRE-DOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP
International Security Studies at Yale (ISS) will award up to two Smith Richardson Foundation Pre-doctoral Fellowships in Security Studies beginning in the Fall semester of 2010, contingent upon available funding for this program. Fellowships are for one academic year and will provide an opportunity for advanced doctoral candidates from universities other than Yale in the field of security studies, with particular emphasis on international, diplomatic, and military history, to benefit from a year at Yale and involvement with the ISS community. Applications from non-U.S. citizens are welcome.
Fellows will have full access to Yale's library and other academic resources, but they will not be eligible for Yale financial aid or degrees, nor will they be allowed to take or teach classes. The stipend will be $23,000 per year, with an additional $3,000 in research expenses. The Fellowship will provide shared office space and single membership in the Yale Health Plan if the Fellows home institution does not provide transportable health coverage.
