<p>I am a doc studient of Political Science/Practical Philosophy at a University in Madrid, Spain.</p>
<p>I would love to join a research team at an American University, preferably with one of the great universities, such as Boston or John Hopkins.</p>
<p>Now, what steps would I have to take?
- Find a job, get a visa, establish myself there directly etc…
- OR are there scholarships for European students (Austrian nationality)
- OR should I directly contact with a professor over there in the US?</p>
<p>Perhaps I should add that I have post-grad studies in international relations and peacekeeping. Furthermore my profession is journalism and I have experience in doing research mainly in the field of human rights…</p>
<p>My sense is that I could complement my studies substantially in the United States and eventually even work there in a relevant institution.
That is my intuition but yet I ve no clue how to go about it.</p>
<p>Thank you for any helpful suggestions!
Very best greetings, hasta pronto,
from Barcelona where I´m now,
Elisabeth</p>
