-- Princeton in Asia (PiA) is an independent, non-profit organization located at Princeton University. Founded by
students in 1898, the program has long been driven by a mission to foster cross-cultural understanding between
Asians and Americans by giving young people opportunities to live and work in Asia. As employees of a variety of
Asian institutions, PiA fellows gain work experience while providing valuable services to their Asian hosts. It is PiAâ��s
vision that through extended exposure to Asian workplaces and cultures, fellows will develop a life-long appreciation
for that region of the world.

-- For the 2009-2010 academic year, PiA expects to offer approximately 130 full-year fellowships in the following
countries: Cambodia, China/Hong Kong, Japan, India, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Laos, Malaysia, Mongolia,
Nepal, The Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Timor-Leste and Vietnam. New
positions in other countries are always under development and may also be available. PiA offers service-oriented posts
in the fields of education, journalism, development (NGO), and business, with a majority of fellows working as
English teachers at universities and high schools.

-- PiA applicants are generally college seniors or recent graduates, but anyone who meets the prerequisites is welcome to
apply. Please remember this is a fellowship program. Though a local salary and housing will be provided, a position
with PiA generally is not a money-making venture. The emphasis of a PiA fellowship is service and cultural
immersion. As a result, working hours, particularly in the teaching fellowships, are kept low if possible so fellows can
pursue language study or other personal projects. Workplace fellowships, however, provide less vacation and generally
require longer hours than teaching positions. The basic prerequisite for placement is a bachelorâ��s degree.
