The International Studies Program administers the Aronson International Experience Grant (AIEG). These 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 for International Studies students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The AIEG offers students up to $3,000* to cover travel costs associated with the following activities:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Independent research projects – Juniors and Seniors only<\/strong> (*students in this category may request up to $4,500 in funding)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Intersession and summer courses<\/li>\n\n\n\n
International conferences<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Unpaid or underpaid internships during the academic year or summer (documentation of salary\/pay must be submitted to be eligible for such awards)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Study abroad during the academic year (some exclusions may apply)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
All AIEG recipients will be named \u201cAronson Scholars\u201d and are required to acknowledge the award in all publications and communications related to the funded project. Suggested wording: \u201cThis work\/project was supported by an Aronson International Experience Grant from the Aronson Center for International Studies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Eligibility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Students must be matriculated at the university, officially enrolled as majors in the International Studies Program, and in good academic standing to apply. First-year students who intend to declare the IS major and are following the degree curriculum may also be eligible for AIEG awards on a case-by-case basis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Priority will be given to students with documented financial need<\/strong> as determined from information provided by the Office of Student Financial Services and as part of the AIEG application process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Application Process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Students apply online via the AIEG application. All applicants must submit a resume, a project budget, and a short proposal that describes how the proposed international experience will advance their academic and\/or career goals within the field of international studies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If funding is requested to support a research project overseas, a letter of reference from a faculty sponsor or project principle investigator (PI) must also be sent to internationalstudies@jhu.edu<\/a>. The research plan should indicate the topic to be investigated and as much detail as possible about the research that will be conducted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For more information, contact Dr. Sydney Van Morgan, International Studies Program Director, at sydney@jhu.edu<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deadlines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
October 1 <\/strong>for intersession and spring projects<\/li>\n\n\n\n
March 1 <\/strong>for summer and fall projects<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nNote:<\/strong> All undergraduates participating in university sponsored international research and\/or study projects must meet with a study abroad adviser and register with the Global Education Office before submitting their AIEG application. 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
International students are encouraged to take full advantage of study abroad opportunities by pursuing studies outside the United States and their home countries. Johns Hopkins will not approve study abroad at locations where students have completed secondary education or where they have lived and\/or worked within eight years of matriculation at Johns Hopkins. Students who wish to take courses at universities in their home countries will be asked to petition the Faculty Advisory Committee for Study Abroad. Students must present a strong academic rationale for the program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
