Research
The central mission of International Studies and Programs is supporting the international research of a talented and growing cadre of international studies faculty. What began as a corps of two research fellows has grown to 25 today, establishing the Center's unique role as the only research-oriented international studies center in the state of Missouri. The books and articles published by International Studies and Programs fellows reflect an impressive productivity and multidisciplinary diversity. In addition to faculty fellows, International Studies and Programs also supports over 30 research associates with travel funds and grant assistance.Endowed Professorships
