Dear Colleagues, 

I would like to bring to your attention a funding program available through
the National Science Foundation (NSF) called the East Asia and Pacific
Summer Institutes (EAPSI). The EAPSI program offers U.S. graduate students
in science and engineering a unique opportunity to study abroad with foreign
researchers (in Australia, China, Japan, Korea, New Zealand, Singapore, or
Taiwan) for 8 weeks during the summer. In 2008, the EAPSI awards will
include a stipend of $5,000, an allowance for international travel, and
support to attend a pre-departure orientation in Washington DC. Foreign
co-sponsoring organizations will provide additional support to cover EAPSI
students' living expenses abroad. 

I have initiated the outreach phase for our 2008 summer program. Attached to
this e-mail is a copy of our 2008 EAPSI flyer. The link to the EAPSI website
is  <http://www.nsf.gov/eapsi> http://www.nsf.gov/eapsi. Please distribute
this information to graduate students who may have an interest in the
program. If you would like to receive hard copies of the EAPSI flyer or the
EAPSI poster for your program or institution, please provide me your mailing
address and I will ensure that copies are mailed to you. 

Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions about the EAPSI
program. I hope very much to see applications from graduate students at your
institution. 

Thank you in advance for your assistance. 

Sincerely,
