Kathryn Davis Fellowships for Peace: Investing in the Study of
Critical Languages

Full Scholarships for Intensive Language Study at the Middlebury
Summer Language Schools in: Arabic, Chinese, Hebrew, Japanese,
Portuguese, and Russian

Middlebury College is pleased to announce The Kathryn Davis
Fellowships for Peace: Investing in the Study of Critical Languages.
These 100 fellowships are made possible by a generous gift from
Kathryn Davis to address today’s critical need for increased language
proficiency in the United States.

For the fourth year in a row, 100 Davis Fellowships are offered to
cover the full cost of summer language study from beginner to graduate
levels in Arabic, Chinese, Hebrew, Japanese, Portuguese, and Russian
at the Middlebury College Language Schools. Fellowship grants cover
the full comprehensive fee (tuition, room, and board) at the
Middlebury summer Language Schools.

The Davis Fellowships are merit-based and intended for exceptionally
qualified individuals with demonstrated interest in one or more of the
following areas: international, global, or area studies; international
politics and economics; peace and security studies; and/or conflict
resolution. Individuals in other fields, including working
professionals, are also encouraged to apply if their field of
expertise requires them to study one of the critical languages listed
above.
