Applications are open for the Fung Global Fellows Program at the Princeton Institute for International and Regional Studies (PIIRS) 2022-2023. The program will select early-career scholars from around the world to be in residence at Princeton for an academic year and to engage in research and discussion around a common theme.

The number of candidates hired at this rank will depend on the qualifications of the overall applicant pool. The fellowships will be awarded to scholars employed outside the United States who have a faculty appointment, a professional research appointment, or are established, independent scholars. They will also be expected to return to their positions at the conclusion of the fellowship. Lastly, they must have demonstrated outstanding scholarly achievement and unusual intellectual promise. Early-career scholars will be appointed at the rank of Visiting Research Scholar.

During the academic year 2022-23, the Fung Global Fellows Program theme will be “Sustainable Futures.” The Fung Global Fellows Program welcomes applicants from all disciplinary and inter-disciplinary fields – humanities, social science, natural science, engineering, technology, law, architecture – to examine varied notions and workable practices of sustainability.
