About This Opportunity

The Fulbright University of Edinburgh Award covers a one-year taught Master's programme at the University of Edinburgh. The University of Edinburgh is the sixth oldest university in the United Kingdom and the oldest civic foundation in the English-speaking world, ranked 22nd in the world. Scotland's inspiring capital will be the backdrop to your studies. One of Europe's great cultural hubs and a stimulating place to study, Edinburgh is an irresistible blend of history, natural beauty and modern city life. Applicants are encouraged to apply for one of the one-year taught Masters programmes, with courses ranging across three Colleges – Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences (CAHSS), Science and Engineering (CSE), and Medicine and Veterinary Medicine (CMVM). 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, 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.
