AIPS Fellowships & Grants

AIPS is pleased to offer several academic awards, which are available to graduate students and faculty scholars studying topics related to Pakistan.

Please Note: Current federal travel regulations prohibit the use of government-sponsored funding for travel to Pakistan. AIPS Fellowships can be used to travel to and pursure research in any country EXCEPT Pakistan and the United States.

AIPS Fellowships are designed to provide research support for both pre- and post-doctoral scholars.

The AIPS Book Prize awards outstanding recent publications related to Pakistan.

The AIPS Travel Grant provides funding to travel to and present research at conferences worldwide.

The Scholar-in-Residence program (currently inactive) allows for senior faculty members to spend time in Islamabad without pursuing a specific research agenda.
