Dear colleagues,
The NSF East Asia Pacific Summer Institutes (EAPSI) Program provides U.S. graduate students in science and engineering 1) first-hand research experience in Australia, China, Japan, Korea, New Zealand or Taiwan; 2) an introduction to the science and science policy infrastructure of the respective location; and 3) orientation to the society, culture and language. The primary goals of EAPSI are to introduce students to East Asia and Pacific science and engineering in the context of a research laboratory, and to initiate personal relationships that will better enable them to collaborate with foreign counterparts in the future. The institutes last approximately eight weeks from June to August. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) co-sponsor the Summer Institute in Japan.
EAPSI changes for 2007
* New Zealand is added as an East Asia and Pacific Summer Institutes (EAPSI) location.
* The Award amount has been amended to reflect the increase in the stipend amount to $4,000.
* Proposal preparation instructions have been clarified.
* Potential host institutions are expanded to include Beijing, Shanghai, Kunming and Xian.
Please see www.nsf.gov/eapsi for more details. The deadline is December 12, 2006. For more information, contact the program manager, at 703-292-8704 or eapinfo@nsf.gov. Do not contact me, as I do not have any further information on this program. But feel to contact me with other questions you might have about NSF.
Sincerely,
