2012-2013 International Affairs Fellowship in Nuclear Security

Overview

The IAF in Nuclear Security offers university-based scholars an opportunity to gain valuable hands-on experience in the nuclear security policymaking field by working in a U.S. government agency or at an international organization for one year. The program closes the gap between research and practice and enriches the teaching and scholarship of academics, while also benefiting policymakers by exposing them to cutting-edge scholarly research.

This program is only open to candidates who are full-time faculty members on a tenured or tenure-track line at an accredited four-year college or university, who hold a Ph.D. or other advanced degree, and who propose to conduct policy-relevant research on nuclear security issues. Qualified candidates must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents who are eligible to work in the United States and be between the ages of twenty-nine and forty.


The program awards a stipend of $125,000. Fellows are considered independent contractors rather than employees of CFR, and they are not eligible for employment benefits, including health insurance.

Topics appropriate for the fellowship include nuclear terrorism, nuclear proliferation, nuclear weapons, nuclear force posture, and the security implications of nuclear energy.

The award is designed to enable fellowship winners to spend a year at a U.S. government agency or at an international organization that deals with nuclear security issues. CFR will work with the fellowship winners to identify an agency or organization willing to serve as a host. All placements are made at the discretion of and with the approval of the host agency or organization. CFR cannot guarantee placement at an agency or organization.

Please contact Fellowship Affairs at fellowships@cfr.org or 212.434.9489 as soon as possible.
