Department of State

The U.S. Department of State hosted 50 promising young scholars from Australia, India, Japan, the United States, and Southeast Asia at the second Quad Fellowship Summit in Washington, D.C. on October 7. Launched in 2021, the Quad Fellowship welcomed its second cohort of fellows, and this is the first year it includes scholars from Southeast Asia. Quad Fellows receive a stipend to pursue graduate degrees in STEM fields at U.S. universities.

The Fellowship, which is administered by the Institute for International Education, is part of a broader Quad commitment to harness emerging technologies for the benefit of people across the Indo-Pacific, and utilize these technologies to facilitate economic prosperity, openness, and connectivity.
