About the Program

The Open Source Center seeks motivated graduate- and doctoral-level students with demonstrated reading proficiency in a foreign language for paid fellowships. Qualified candidates will have an opportunity to review and assess publicly available information in the foreign arena--including radio, television, press, geospatial sources, Internet sites--and specialized publications--to contribute to the  delivery of high-impact products to the US foreign affairs community.  These students hone their foreign language, area knowledge, and subject matter expertise to develop an understanding of how information collected supports policymakers.
