Teaching Fellowships in East Europe/Former Soviet Union for 2002-03



The Civic Education Project (CEP) is now accepting 2002-03 applications for
its Visiting Faculty Fellowship Program and Local Faculty Fellowship
Program. CEP awards teaching fellowships to faculty, Ph.D.s and advanced
postgraduate students in the social sciences, law and journalism/media
studies. CEP Fellows teach at CEP partner universities located throughout
Central and Eastern Europe, the Former Soviet Union, and Mongolia.



Celebrating its 10th anniversary year in 2001, CEP is an international
volunteer organisation dedicated to facilitating reform at universities and
institutions of higher learning in post-communist societies. CEP works
through its two fellowship programs, the Visiting Faculty Fellowship
Program, and the Local Faculty Fellowship Program. CEP Fellows participating
in both programs serve as lecturers at universities throughout the region.



CEP Visiting Faculty Fellows are academics from outside of the region who
teach and mentor for one academic year (two semesters) at a college in a CEP
program country.  Visiting Faculty Fellows receive a stipend, round-trip air
travel, accommodation, health insurance, language lessons, and book
allowances.



CEP Local Faculty Fellows are academics from the region who have graduated
from a North American or West European university with a postgraduate
degree. CEP supports their efforts to stay in academia in their home country
by providing a monthly stipend, teaching materials, and participation in
various CEP events and activities.



Both Visiting and Local Fellows become part of an academic network covering
all CEP program countries, from Slovakia to Mongolia. CEP Fellows also work
on a variety of outreach projects outside the classroom. CEP has programs in
23 countries and supports approximately 200 Fellows in a variety of
disciplines, including international relations, sociology, political
science, law, history, economics, public administration, environmental
policy, and journalism/media studies.
