AERA-AIR Fellows Program
The American Educational Research Association (AERA) and the American Institutes for Research (AIR), announce the AERA-AIR (A²) Fellows Program. This program aims to build the talent pool of highly skilled education researchers experienced in working on large-scale studies in major research environments. The A² Fellows program is designed to support early career scholars by providing intensive research and training opportunities to recent doctoral recipients in fields and disciplines related to the scientific study of education and education processes. Up to three fellows are selected annually for a two-year, rotational position at AIR in Washington, DC. A² fellows will receive mentoring from a diverse group of highly recognized researchers and practitioners in a variety of substantive areas in education. Fellows will hone their skills in all aspects of the research process from proposal development through writing and presentations. Further, they will gain practical experience in how to secure funding for education research and technical assistance projects and will expand their professional contacts in order to prepare them for productive research careers in a range of employment contexts.
