The Institute of Current World Affairs (ICWA) awards multiple fellowships for young people who will independently study in foreign countries for at least 2 years.

The John O. Crane Memorial Fellowship is for fellows in Central and Eastern Europe or the Middle East. The John Miller Musser Memorial Forest & Society Fellowships is for fellows with graduate degrees in forestry or forest-related specialties. The Donors' Fellowship is awarded in any topic of study.
