Guidelines - Call for 2018 Arryman Fellows
 

The Indonesian Scholarship and Research Support Foundation (ISRSF) invites talented young Indonesian graduates holding at least S1 degree to apply for the 2018 Arryman Fellows award. This award is an innovative “1+6” educational scholarship leading to the doctoral degree.

During the first year, Arryman Fellows are funded to be in residence at Northwestern University in Chicago (USA) as pre-doctoral researchers. Fellows take graduate classes for credit in their chosen field of study, receive advanced English language training, and write a major research paper. ISRSF seeks applicants in the fields of political science, history, law, journalism and communications, anthropology, sociology, or development studies.

Arryman Fellows who are successfully admitted during their first year to a Northwestern Ph.D. program are eligible to become Arryman Scholars. This six-year award covers the second phase of the “1+6” design. Arryman Scholars receive full tuition, a stipend for living expenses, travel and research support, as well as other funding to advance their scholarly development.

After obtaining their Ph.D, all Arryman Scholars are required to serve for a period equal to their academic support as academic staff or researchers at the Center for Public Policy Transformation, which is supported by the Rajawali Foundation, Harvard Kennedy School, Northwestern University.
