EAI Fellows Program on Peace, Development, and Governance in East Asia

The East Asia Institute (EAI), based in South Korea and currently under the leadership of Professor Byung-kook Kim at Korea University, has conducted its fellowship program, the “Fellows Program on Peace, Governance, and Development in East Asia,” since 2005, with leading academic institutions in Beijing, Seoul, Shanghai, Taipei, and Tokyo as member institutions. The goal of the program is to promote high-quality scholarly exchange between North America-based East Asianists and East Asia-based social scientists, in order to further the development of East Asian Studies as subfield in its own right in political science, economics, sociology, and international relations.

Through the years, the EAI’s Fellows Program has benefitted from the support of the Foundation, as well as the Luce Foundation, the East Asia Foundation, and the Japan Foundation. Starting from 2014, the Fellow’s Program will expand its eligibility to include scholars from all over the world.
