Fulbright Open Study/Research Award - Eswatini

The Fulbright U.S. Student Program in Eswatini aims to strengthen educational and cultural relationships between the United States and Eswatini. U.S. Fulbright students in this country will benefit from a rich cultural experience as Eswatini, though small with a population of 1.3 million people, has strong traditional practices. The program welcomes projects involving fieldwork and research in a variety of subject areas, including science and technology, environmental studies, economics/economic development, public health (especially HIV/AIDS), and the arts. The University of Eswatini serves as the affiliate for most U.S. Fulbrighters and has three campuses: one in the capital city and two in peri-urban areas with vibrant student communities nearby. Candidates at the bachelor's, master's, and Ph.D. levels will be considered for this 6-9 month grant period with flexible start dates between August 2026 and March 2027.
