The program intends to provide an opportunity for qualified American
university graduates and post doctoral scholars in the social sciences  
and related disciplines (sociology, political science, economics, and
history). The program is designed to help scholars familiarize themselves
with the current state of research in their field in Germany and conduct
independent research. Applicants are expected to engage in political
dialogue. There are three types of fellowships being offered on an
open competitive basis:

		* Pre-Dissertation/Advanced Graduate Fellowships
		* Doctoral Research Fellowships
		* Post-Doctoral/Young Scholar Fellowships

Eligibility: Applicants must be U.S. citizens who have a special interest
	     in contemporary or past German or European affairs
     	     and/or German-American relations (particularly comparative
	     studies). Appropriate knowledge of German is required at the
	     time of application. 

Awards: DM 1.250,00 for Pre-dissertation or Advanced Graduate fellows;
	DM 1.390,00 for Doctoral Research fellows; and DM 1.700,00 for
 	Post-doctoral/Young Scholar fellows. Air fare, an allowance for
        luggage costs, health insurance, books, tuition and fees if
