Fulbright/University of East Anglia Award

The Fulbright University of East Anglia Award covers the first year of a taught master's or research degree offered by the university. The University of East Anglia (UEA) is a UK Top 25 institution with a ranking in the World Top 100 for research citations due to a reputation for cutting edge, global research. The campus is within 320 acres of rolling parkland, three miles from the centre of Norwich, a medieval British city which is also England's first UNESCO City of Literature. Flagship programmes include the UK's first School of Environmental Sciences and Creative Writing course. The professional education offered by our Schools of Business, and Law are highly regarded. Other academic strengths include Economics, History, Media & Film Studies, Chemistry, International Relations and International Development. This uniquely placed university is a leading member of Norwich Research Park, one of Europe's biggest concentrations of researchers in the fields of environment, health, and plant science. The Commission is seeking applicants who demonstrate rigor in scholarly enquiry and academic or professional excellence, strong reasons for wishing to pursue the proposed project in the UK and at a particular institution, a desire to gain a better understanding of the peoples and cultures of their host country, commitment to the community through volunteer and extra-curricular activities, and flexibility and dynamism necessary for active involvement in the host country. This is a Study/Research Partnership Award that provides full tuition waiver for the first year, living stipend, travel benefits, and health coverage for a 10-month grant period.
