The Faculty Development Fellowship is a nondegree program that encourages pursuit of academic careers by outstanding faculty, generates innovative approaches to curricular and pedagogical reform in the countries served, and supports the development of regional and international institutional partnerships and collaborative projects.
Faculty Development Fellowships are offered to faculty in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Mongolia, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan. Each year for up to three years, participants spend one semester at a U.S. university and one semester teaching at their home universities. Participants have designed new courses, presented conference papers, completed several articles and books, expanded research topics, and developed new teaching materials.
