Boren Awards for International Study
African Languages Initiative

“The Boren Awards may be perfect for you. allow U.S. undergraduate students to study less commonly taught languages in world regions critical to U.S. interests but underrepresented in study abroad.  encourage U.S. graduate students to add an important international and language component to their education, and can include language study, research, and academic internships. You must be a U.S. citizen to apply.” Information quoted from - National Security Education Program. (2013). If you are interested in this opportunity, talk with your criminal justice advisor about how you can incorporate this opportunity into fulfilling your degree requirements (e.g., foreign language requirements and using open electives to earn an international studies minor).
