Teaching Awards & Service Corps

Likely candidates for nationally competitive awards are also strong contenders for acceptance into national or international teaching or service programs.  These programs sometimes include prestigious fellowships; most provide financial support during the tenure of service.  If your goal is to give back to the world that has given you so much, one of these programs may be for you.  Here is a partial list of such programs.
