CFR 2013–2014 Stanton Nuclear Security Fellowship
Program
The Program: The Stanton Nuclear Security Fellowship (SNSF)
Program, made possible by a generous grant from the Stanton
Foundation, offers younger scholars studying nuclear security
issues the opportunity to spend a period of twelve months at the
Council on Foreign Relations’ (CFR) offices in New York or
Washington, DC, conducting policy-relevant research. CFR
awards up to three fellowships annually. While in residence full
time at CFR, fellows will be expected to lead a project of their
own design, conduct original research, and write at least one
policy relevant document. The scholars selected as SNSFs will
be mentored by the fellows of CFR’s David Rockefeller Studies
Program.
Eligibility: Qualified candidates must be junior (non-tenured)
faculty, post-doctoral fellows, or pre-doctoral candidates from any
discipline who are working on a nuclear security related issue.
The program is only open to U.S. citizens and permanent
residents who are eligible to work in the United States. CFR does
not sponsor for visas.
Fellowship Award: The program awards a stipend of
$100,000 for junior (non-tenured) faculty; $75,000 for
post-doctoral; and $50,000 for pre-doctoral fellows.
Payment will be made in twelve equal monthly
installments. Fellows are considered independent
contractors rather than employees of CFR, and are not
eligible for employment benefits, including health
insurance.
Deadline: The deadline to apply is December 14,
2012.
How to Apply: Interested candidates who meet the
program’s eligibility requirements must submit
an application form, a cover letter, a CV, and a
proposal outlining the work proposed to conduct. Each
applicant should arrange to have two letters of
recommendation sent assessing the policy relevance
of the applicant’s proposed project as well as the
applicant’s qualifications for carrying it out. All
application materials must be sent
to [email protected] by December 14, 2012.
