Dear Colleagues:

For those of you interested in promoting graduate study in Central and Eastern Europe, please be advised that effective 2001/2002, Central European University (CEU) is extending its fellowship program to students worldwide. Student applications for admission are due in early January 2001.

For full information, please refer to the CEU website: www.ceu.hu (Admissions and Financial Aid).

CEU is chartered in the United States by the Board of Regents of the University of the State of New York, and is Candidate for Accreditation by the Commission on Higher Education of the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools*. Its main teaching site is located in Budapest, Hungary. The CEU programs in Sociology are based in Warsaw, Poland.

Central European University (CEU) is an internationally recognized institution of post-graduate education in social sciences and humanities. It seeks to contribute to the development of open societies in Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union by promoting a system of education in which ideas are creatively, critically, and comparatively examined. CEU serves as an advanced center of research and policy analysis and facilitates academic dialogue while preparing its graduates to serve as the region's next generation of leaders and scholars.

The CEU Fellowship Program has been a direct means of supporting the university's mission to develop and sustain open societies, democracy, rule of law, free markets, tolerance, and political and cultural pluralism in the region by sponsoring researchers, intellectuals, and activists committed to these values. However, it has also become clear over the last decade that Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union are not the only parts of the world experiencing the development of more open societies. In response to this spreading democratization, from the 2001/2002 academic year the university will continue to focus on individuals and organizations in the region while extending the CEU Fellowship Program worldwide, with particular emphasis on students in emerging democracies.
