Sumitro Phd/Posdoc Research Fellowship Grant 2007
The United States Indonesia Society (USINDO) invites applications for
its 2007 travel/study grant for post-doctoral scholars, Ph.D.
candidates, senior academics, and otherwise professionally qualified candidates
to engage in field research in Indonesia on an economic or
political-economic topic. This grant is available to United States citizens and
permanent residents in the United States with a specific project relating
to the political economy of Indonesia. The Indonesian Sumitro Fellowship
is open to an Indonesian citizen with a project related to the
Indonesian-United States relationship. Previous travel to, and experience in,
Indonesia or the United States (for Indonesian Sumitro applicants) is
desirable but not necessarily a requirement. The deadline for the 2007
Sumitro Fellows Applications is Friday, November 3, 2006.
The Sumitro Fellows program honors Dr. Sumitro Djojohadikusumo,
Indonesia`s senior economist and advisor to USINDO, who passed away on March
9, 2001. An architect of Indonesia`s modern economy, Professor Sumitro
headed the faculty of economics at the University of Indonesia, and was
later a minister of trade and minister of state for research. Professor
Sumitro was also the driving force behind a 1950`s program of the Ford
Foundation which sent Indonesian economists to U.S. academic
institutions for advanced degrees. Many attended the University of California at
Berkeley and the group came to be known as the "Berkeley Mafia" when
its members assumed many key cabinet posts in subsequent decades.
The Sumitro Fellows grants for the 2007 application cycle are $10,000
each.
