The Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) Fellowship Program is predicated
on the belief that “the security, stability, and economic vitality of the
United States in a complex global era depend upon American experts in citizens knowledgeable
about world regions, foreign languages, and international affairs, as well as
upon a strong research base in these areas.”FLAS fellowships strengthen the nation’s ability to respond to security
threats and to compete effectively in the modern world by promoting foreign
language competence and area and international knowledge and by ensuring the
continuance of area expertise in a variety of fields, including academe.
