ASEAN-US Science and Technology Fellows Program (USAID)

Are you a scientist in an ASEAN country? Are you interested in applying your skills beyond the lab or the classroom? Apply now for the ASEAN-U.S. Science and Technology Fellows Program for an opportunity to join a team of science leaders exploring opportunities to address key areas of concern to Asia's citizens through science and policy.

The ASEAN-U.S. Science and Technology Fellows Program, supported by the U.S. government, helps early career scientists from ASEAN Member States be more engaged in policies that drive national priorities and affect the lives of citizens in ASEAN.

The program will select and fund fellows in the ASEAN region to be embedded in government ministries in their home countries to advance science-based decision-making. The thematic areas are biodiversity; clean energy; and fisheries and coastal management. Applicants should have a master's degree, and preferably a PhD. Each fellow will receive a stipend of US$1,200 per month for 12 months. Fellows will also participate in multiple events for professional training and development.

The application deadline is Sunday, February 21st.
