Crown Prince Frederik Fund

The Crown Prince Frederik Fund provides the most prestigious scholarship for Danish citizens to pursue graduate studies at Harvard Kennedy School. Established in 1993 when Crown Prince Frederik studied at Harvard and turned 25, the fund was created by Danish-Americans as a gift to the Crown Prince. Each year, the fund awards scholarships to excellent students to enroll in master's programs at Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government. The scholarship provides a unique opportunity to study at one of the best universities in the world and to learn alongside some of the most talented students and scholars within public service, governance and leadership. Crown Prince Frederik Fund rewards academic excellence and outstanding scholarly performance. Two types of scholarships are available: one full scholarship for a two-year Master in Public Policy or Master in Public Administration program, and one scholarship for a one-year Mid-Career Master in Public Administration (MC/MPA) program. Fulbright Denmark assists with marketing, candidate selection and administration, while funds are administered in the U.S. by Crown Prince Frederik Fund and Harvard Kennedy School.
