International Studies and Programs

International Studies and Programs Fellows and Research Associates

 

Faculty Fellows and Research Associates

The central mission of International Studies and Programs (ISP) is supporting the international research of a talented and growing cadre of international studies faculty.

For many years ISP has appointed Fellows from among regular UMSL faculty and provided funds to support their research projects. What began as a corps of two research fellows has grown to 31, establishing our unique role as the only research-oriented international studies center in the state of Missouri. The books and articles published by ISP fellows reflect an impressive productivity and multidisciplinary diversity
