1. About the APAN Fellowship Program
For the upcoming APAN Meeting in Honolulu,
Hawaii, we will once again support Fellows to attend the meeting and
workshops. The major conference will be held from January 25 through
January 30, 2004.
Fellowships are offered on a competitive
basis, to be chosen from participating economies in APAN. Specifically,
students (graduates and undergraduates) are encouraged to apply, although
young Ph.Ds may be accorded sponsorship. Applicants whose papers are
accepted for presentations will have favored status. A short note from the
candidate on his/her motivation to participate may also help the reviewers
in their final selection.
Considerations will be given to individuals
who are a part of APAN's primary and associate members, or affiliates and
liaison members. However, since we design the Fellowship Program to
encourage contributions to the further development in the APAN community,
our selection priority will focus on candidates who exhibit such
qualities. The ability to engage in collaborative research and
development, with a mentor, or under the guidance of a professor, will be
highly valued. After all, the Fellowship Program is for human resources
development, and we wish to foster the development of talents who will
impact on this community in the future.
