Students in the International Studies Program can receive funding to study abroad or enhance their language learning opportunities, or to apply for internships. Below is a list of grants available to students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Aronson International Experience Grant<\/a> awards have been made possible through a generous gift from Jeffrey and Shari Aronson as part of the Aronson Center for International Studies. They are designed to make educational opportunities abroad more accessible to International Studies Program students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Second Decade Society\/Florence \u201cMeg\u201d Long Walsh Leadership Award<\/a> provides a graduating senior from the Krieger School of Arts and Sciences with $32,000 to undertake an independent project of their own unique design involving international travel. The award affords the opportunity for a promising Hopkins graduate to focus on an independent project that explores the student\u2019s own interests and abilities, test their knowledge and assumptions in a broader international context, and develop leadership skills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The Brown Family Travel Fund<\/a> is an endowment supported by the H.L. and Elizabeth M. Brown Foundation. The fund is geared toward rising or current seniors in the International Studies Program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Hull Family Study Abroad Fund<\/a> was created with the purpose of providing Johns Hopkins undergraduates with the opportunity to study abroad at the University\u2019s SAIS-Europe center in Bologna, Italy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n LACLxS<\/a> offers small grants to support summer research and travel in Latin America and the Caribbean. Grants are awarded on a competitive basis, and the competition is open to all undergraduate and graduate students of Johns Hopkins University.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n Blakemore language grants<\/a> are awarded to individuals pursuing professional careers in fields such as business, academia, journalism, public service, law, science, medicine, architecture, engineering, the fine arts, education, etc. who would benefit from improved fluency in an East or Southeast Asian language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The CLE Study Abroad Scholarship<\/a> program is available to students studying a language offered in CLE overseas during the academic year (fall, spring, and summer).<\/p>\n\n\n\n The U.S. Department of State<\/a> has a website intended to be a “one-stop” platform listing U.S. government language programs for Americans seeking to learn a foreign language. Each of the site’s program entries includes a list of languages taught under the program.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n Note: <\/strong>All undergraduates participating in international internships must meet with a study abroad adviser and register with the Global Education Office before submitting their internship funding application<\/strong>. Furthermore, students whose experience is in a country determined to be at high risk by the U.S. Department of State and\/or the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) must submit a petition to the Global Education Office<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Through the generosity of alumnus Charles Robins, Johns Hopkins University offers funding for selected students to gain business-related or economic development-related experience through internships in East, Southeast, or South Asia. The experience can be in private industry, or it can be in a government or nonprofit setting as long as the position is focused on business\/economic development, finance, accounting, marketing, or management. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Applications can be found by searching \u201cRobins\u201d in the jobs section of the Handshake platform.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe Second Decade Society\/Florence \u201cMeg\u201d Long Walsh Leadership Award<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
