A Boren Awards representative will be visiting campus to provide information about the Boren Fellowship and the Boren Scholarship. Both awards are initiatives of the National Security Education Program to provide unique funding opportunities for U.S. students to study less commonly taught languages in world regions critical to U.S. interests, and underrepresented in study abroad, including Africa, Asia, Central and Eastern Europe, Eurasia, Latin America, and the Middle East. The countries of Western Europe, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand are excluded.

Boren Fellows and Boren Scholars represent a vital pool of highly motivated individuals who wish to work in the federal national security arena. In exchange for funding, Boren Fellows commit to working in the federal government for at least one year after graduation.

Additional details about the Boren Fellowship and Boren Scholarship are available here.

Required sign-up for this workshop can be found in WooConnect.
