The EAI Fellows hold seminars and lectures based on an unpublished article submitted solely for the purpose of the Fellows Program at its Member Institutions: The East Asia Institute in Seoul, Fudan University in Shanghai, Keio University in Tokyo, Peking University in Beijing, and Taiwan National University in Taipei. Each of the Fellows receive a total of US$14,900 for the cost of travel and accommodation in East Asia for three weeks.
