Veterans who are within two years of finishing graduate degrees, or prevented from finishing such degrees because of service obligations, could qualify for a government-sponsored fellowship. Launched by Secretary of State John F. Kerry in October 2013, the Veterans Innovation Partnership provides successful applicants with a path to building networks that would foster careers in foreign affairs. Activities include forging opportunities in U.S. government foreign-affairs agencies, as well with public and private employers. The application deadline is March 27. Applications received by March 20, the first cut-off date, will receive first consideration. To apply, visit www.vipfellowship.org on the Web.
