C.V. Starr Fellows Program for Mid-Career Professionals

The George Washington University's Elliott School of International Affairs
will be awarding fellowships to allow a small number of mid-career
professionals from Eastern Europe, Russia, the former Soviet Republics,
South Asia, Latin America and Africa to pursue the Master of International
Policy and Practice <http://www.gwu.edu/~elliott/academicprograms/mipp/>
program during the 2001-2002 academic year. The fellowships, made possible
by a generous grant from the Starr Foundation, will range from half- to
full-tuition awards. Recipients must be able to cover their own living and
travel expenses.

Criteria for Admission
Candidates must have a B.A. plus either eight years of professional work
experience or an advanced degree to be eligible for the fellowship. GREs are
strongly recommended but not required. A TOEFL score of 600 is usually
required for admission. The competition for both the fellowships and
admission to the M.I.P.P. program is extremely competitive.

The M.I.P.P.
The M.I.P.P. is an intensive, one-year degree program for mid-career
professionals. It prepares international affairs professionals to understand
complex global trends, make informed decisions about their organizations'
future, analyze and forecast international events. M.I.P.P. candidates take
three core courses: one in international politics, one in international
economics, and one exclusive seminar that engages participants in
discussions with prominent guest speakers from international business, the
policy community, the international media, and the nonprofit sector.
Remaining coursework is tailored to participants' individual needs. M.I.P.P.
candidates can concentrate on a wide range of related subjects including
international business, economics, politics, development, security policy,
or science and technology policy. M.I.P.P. candidates may also choose to
study the dynamics of a particular region, such as Latin America or Asia, or
the international aspects of U.S. policy.

The Elliott School of International Affairs
The Elliott School is The George Washington University's professional school
of international affairs. Located in the heart of the nation's capital, the
School trains exceptional men and women in the theory and practice of
international affairs. It is home to a widely respected faculty and three
research centers, which provide in-depth analysis of an extensive range of
international economic, scientific, and political issues.

Application
Applications for the Starr Fellows program are due by April 15, 2001.
Candidates who would like to be considered for other fellowships at GW
should apply by January 1, 2001.
