The NBR Undergraduate Diversity Fellowship aims to provide paid educational, professional, and mentorship opportunities community college and undergraduate students who are interested in pursuing a career in the field of international affairs or Asia policy, and who display a commitment to increase diversity and representation in our field.

NBR acknowledges the historical exclusion and underrepresentation of minorities and Black and brown professionals within U.S. foreign policy at all levels, and strongly encourages members of historically underrepresented groups, such as Black and brown students, to apply.

NBR is committed to opening the door to minority voices and perspectives in policy and understands that informed decision-making requires diverse leaders in the field. Through the Undergraduate Diversity Fellowship Program, NBR hopes to begin closing the accessibility gap in the field of International Affairs and to continue to shape the next generation of bright, diverse Asia specialists.
