ISEAS Fellowship Program 2009
ISEAS-Buddhist Lodge Fellowship

The Institute of Southeast Asian Studies (ISEAS) in Singapore is  
accepting applications from scholars who wish to undertake research  
and writing in the area of networks of Buddhist exchanges in Asia.   
Preference will be given to scholars who have completed their Ph.D.  
degree within the last ten years.  The fellowship will be for a period  
of up to six months and can be commenced any time between September  
and December 2009.

While in residence in Singapore, the fellow is expected to complete a  
paper on the proposed topic, organize or contribute to a workshop, and  
give a public lecture at ISEAS. The fellowships include a monthly (all- 
inclusive) stipend of SGD $6,000, and a one-off payment of SGD $1500  
to cover research costs. In addition, a round-trip economy airfare  
between the home country of the researcher and Singapore will be  
provided. The fellowship will be awarded under a program funded by the  
Singapore Buddhist Lodge.

Applicants should include with their applications a cover letter, a  
full CV, two letters of reference, and a research proposal of  
approximately five pages (double spaced).  The proposal should discuss  
the issue to be examined, the tentative hypothesis and arguments, a  
review of the relevant literature, plans for fieldwork, and project  
time frame. The preferred period for the fellowship should also be  
advised.  The deadline for applications is June 1, 2009 and should be  
directed to the following address:

ISEAS Program for Buddhist Studies
Institute of Southeast Asian Studies
30 Heng Mui Keng Terrace
Singapore 119614
