The Borlaug Fellowship Program provides opportunities for short-term
research projects to improve agricultural productivity, economic
development, and food security. It offers training and collaborative
opportunities for agricultural research, international agricultural
economics, leadership, and policy to researchers. Competitively
selected fellows will work one-on-one with a U.S. mentor who will
coordinate the training program. After completion of the 10-12 week
fellowship, the mentor will visit the fellow's home institution to
continue collaboration. USDA will select U.S. host institutions and
mentors for each fellow. We will only accept applications on approved
topics for each country. Please select this link to view acceptable
research proposals for eligible countries.
Application Deadline is November 30, 2016.
