Since 1977, 1673 young researchers have participated in IIASA's Young Scientist Summer Program - YSSP. Very few of these students were from developing countries that are not IIASA member states. The IIASA Annual Fund, as well as the Petr Aven Fellowship as well offers the opportunity to do research at the Institute to up to three exceptional graduate students from developing countries that are not IIASA member states who would not have outside sponsorship. Similarly, the newly established Nathan Keyfitz Fellowship funds one graduate to participate in IIASA’s YSSP with the World Population Program.
The Peter de Janosi Fellowship offers one postgraduate student the opportunity to participate in the IIASA Postdoctoral Program.
