About This Opportunity

The Fulbright University of Strathclyde Awards provide funding for graduate study at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland. The program offers two awards: one in the Faculty of Humanities & Social Sciences for a 1-year taught master's or PhD, and one in the Faculty of Engineering for a PhD. The University of Strathclyde is Scotland's largest engineering faculty and was awarded UK University of the Year twice by Times Higher Education. The awards are part of the prestigious Fulbright U.S. Student Program, which has fostered academic exchange between the United States and United Kingdom since 1948. As a socially progressive, internationally leading technological university, Strathclyde is home to world-class researchers with almost 90% of research rated as world-leading or internationally-excellent. The university has over 30,000 students from over 140 countries and is located in Glasgow, voted World's Friendliest City. The Faculty of Engineering features state-of-the-art facilities and multimillion-pound investments in equipment. The Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences offers professionally recognized courses with strong links to government, global organizations, and academic networks in subjects including diplomacy, politics, education, law, journalism, history, and psychology. Fulbrighters receive comprehensive support including a living stipend, tuition waiver, travel allowance, health benefits, and mental health support. The program emphasizes cultural exchange, community engagement, and developing a deeper understanding of UK culture and society. Grantees participate in Fulbright Commission enrichment events and have opportunities to explore the UK's diverse landscapes across England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales.
