Seven exceptional scholars from around the world will come to Princeton University this fall to begin a year of research, writing and collaboration as the ninth cohort of Fung Global Fellows. Six will engage in their fellowship virtually; one will be on campus.
The Fung Global Fellows Program, administered by the Princeton Institute for International and Regional Studies (PIIRS), has, in the past, brought together international research scholars in the social sciences and humanities. For the 2021-22 academic year, however, scholars will work on “Sustainable Futures,” which will broaden the program’s interdisciplinary approach, and include perspectives from architecture, engineering and law. Stephen Kotkin, the John P. Birkelund ’52 Professor in History and International Affairs, co-director of the Program in History and the Practice of Diplomacy, and director of PIIRS, will serve as acting director of the program for the 2021-22 academic year.
