Description
The International Security Program Fellowship at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, Harvard Kennedy School, is designed to cultivate emerging talent in the broad field of security studies. The fellowship invites pre- and postdoctoral scholars to pursue independent, policy-relevant research in areas such as U.S. defense and foreign policy, grand strategy, diplomacy, weapons proliferation (nuclear, chemical, biological), terrorism, regional or ethnic conflict, and international relations theory. Fellows benefit from a collaborative academic environment, direct engagement with leading experts, and the opportunity to explore both traditional and emerging security challenges.
