Gathering new knowledge and developing new skills for building democracy around the world may seem like an unusual reason to travel to a small town in Ohio. But the location of the school, its faculty, and its resources make Ada and Ohio Northern an ideal place to combine the practice and theory of building democratic institutions. We invite you to look through these pages and learn more about our college of law and this program, and about the students from 13 different countries who have joined us in these first two years. We hope you too can share in this exciting endeavor. Mission of the LLM Program The LLM in Democratic Governance and Rule of Law provides young lawyers with the training and tools to implement law reforms that support stable democratic institutions and the rule of law in a free-market economy. The core of the LLM is a fully-funded, one-year program of study designed for lawyers practicing in the public sector whose first law degree was earned from a law school outside the U.S. Students are required to commit to 2 years further public service upon return to their home countries. A small number of lawyers from the United States and other developed democracies may be considered for admission as well. Through small classes with outstanding faculty, close interaction among the students and with the faculty, and numerous short seminars and field observations, students will receive an intensive education in practical democracy and law.

To find out more about the International Scholarships, please see the 'International Scholarships' section: This September, we have a class of 1307 students joining Yale community as first-years. Approximately 10% of them are non-US citizens from across the globe and 3% are US citizens schooled abroad. Office of International Students and Scholars Yale's Office of International Students and Scholars (OISS) works to assist any and all international students on campus. Whether serving a resource on immigration matters or picking up students from nearby airports, the OISS makes transitioning to Yale's campus as simple as possible. For more information, please visit www.yale.edu/oiss. In addition, the OISS organizes the Orientation for International Students (OIS), a four-day orientation program designed to introduce new international students to Yale and to the city of New Haven. Led by international Yale College students, the program includes activities such as: * Taking Care of Business-setting up a US Bank Account, mailbox, and cell phone * International Talent Show-a chance for international students to show off their hidden talents * Shopping Trip-a shopping excur¬sion to purchase any items necessary for new dorms * An Afternoon at the Beach-a trip to Lighthouse Point Park, New Haven's very own beach area Financial Aid Yale College admits students on the basis of academic and personal promise, without regard for their ability to pay. For all applicants (regardless of citizenship!) Yale practices need-blind admissions. This means that the submission of a financial aid application has no bearing on the Admission Committee's decision. Furthermore, Yale meets 100% of a student's demonstrated financial need for all four years of study, through grants (scholarship/gift aid) and stu¬dent term-time employment (on-campus jobs starting at $11.50 US/hr). Yale's financial aid assessment is purely need-based - no athletic or merit scholarships are awarded as is the case with all institutions in the Ivy League. With an estimated $95 million dedicated towards financial aid, a Yale education should be affordable for any student. As travel expenses can be quite costly, Yale also awards a vacation allowance to international students on financial aid, meaning that traveling home at least once a year is possible for students around the world. Information about financial aid can be found at http://www.yale.edu/admit/freshmen/financial_aid/index.html. To download specific financial aid forms (including those for international applicants), please visit http://www.yale.edu/sfas/finaid/prospective-students.

Starting in October 2010, the Faculty of Civil Engineering at Technische Universität Dresden offers a new international MSc program in the field of computational and advanced civil engineering. The course is taught in English and addresses a broad international community. The expertise of the Faculty with a strong emphasis on numerical methods and a large field of research topics in engineering is associated to a wide national and international research network. The goal of the programme is to impart knowledge leading to research competence and to high level engineering skills based on an individual choice of modules by the participants. Moreover, the course is intended to provide a close individual supervision of the participants by the teaching staff in order to achieve highest goals most efficiently. ACCESS is designed to develop a unique, up-to-date knowledge and competence in the field of computational mechanics and structural analysis in close combination with advanced civil engineering design. Technical innovations for challenging engineering tasks rely heavily on numerical simulation tools. Thus, the goal of the programme is to provide the skills for modelling, analysis and understanding of these approaches in the broader context of application and design by focus on:
