The Vietnam Program at the Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University, seeks applications for teaching fellowships at the Fulbright Economics Teaching Program of the University of Economics in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, for academic year 2005-2006. Fellowships are for one or two semesters. Eligible candidates will receive the title of Fulbright Lecturer.

The Fulbright Economics Teaching Program (FETP), established in 1995, is a one-year integrated program for Vietnamese managers and policymakers in applied economics for public policy. The program is designed to assist Vietnamese policymakers at the provincial level to develop the analytical skills necessary to formulate and implement sound economic policy. FETP employs innovative teaching approaches. Courses are team taught in collaboration with Vietnamese colleagues and are intensive, typically requiring more class preparation than similar courses in undergraduate or graduate programs. The program operates out of a modern facility, located in downtown Ho Chi Minh City, with a library and Internet connections.

Successful applicants will be US citizens with a Ph.D. in economics or a related field and at least four years of teaching experience at the college and/or graduate level.

Subject to certain limitations, these positions provide for travel and relocation, a monthly stipend, and monthly maintenance for the Fulbright lecturer.
