About This Opportunity

The Fulbright Royal Veterinary College Award covers a one-year taught Master's or the first year of a research degree offered by the Royal Veterinary College (RVC), University of London. One award is offered to pursue a one-year taught Master's degree or higher research programme in any discipline at the RVC. Founded in 1791, the RVC was the first veterinary school in the UK and is currently ranked number one in the world for veterinary sciences by the QS World Ranking. The RVC has developed globally recognised research excellence in Biological Sciences and is a global leader of One Health research and teaching. In addition to research programmes, the RVC offers postgraduate taught degree programmes in One Health, Veterinary Epidemiology, Wild Animal Biology, and Wild Animal Health. The award is part of the US-UK Fulbright Commission exchange programme, which has strengthened bonds between the UK and US since 1948. The grant period is 10 months with a fall start, though tuition waivers cover the entire first year and student visas are not impacted by grant length.
