Fulbright/Maastricht University Award

The Fulbright/Maastricht University Award is a partnership grant that provides U.S. citizens with the opportunity to pursue graduate degree programs at Maastricht University in the Netherlands. This 10-month fellowship begins in late August and supports study in any field for which UM offers graduate programs. Maastricht University is the most international university in the Netherlands, known for its innovative Problem-Based Learning teaching method, small group instruction, and international character. With 22,000 students and 5,000 employees, UM focuses on multidisciplinary research and has quickly built a solid reputation as one of the best young universities in the world. The award provides full tuition coverage, a monthly stipend, international travel benefits, health insurance, and opportunities to engage with the Dutch Fulbright community through orientation meetings, cultural excursions, and mid-year evaluations. The majority of Bachelor's programs and almost all Master's and Ph.D. programs are taught in English, making this an accessible opportunity for U.S. graduate students seeking an international educational experience.
