Boren Awards are scholarships and fellowships for U.S. undergraduate and graduate students committed to long-term overseas study and to public service. Boren awardees receive funding to study the languages most critical to our nation's security in the regions below:

  • Africa
  • Asia
  • Central and Eastern Europe
  • Eurasia
  • Latin America
  • Middle East

As a condition of their award, Boren Scholars and Fellows agree to utilize their skills within the federal government by seeking and securing national security employment for at least one year, strengthening the federal workforce and enhancing U.S. capabilities, deterrence, and readiness.

The Office of Undergraduate Research and Fellowship (URAF) is hosting Michael Saffle, the Boren Outreach and Recruitment Specialist, who will present on the details of the program, the processes of applying, and answer your questions. 

Students of all years are encouraged to attend!

Lunch will be provided
