About this opportunity
This Fulbright award provides funding for U.S. students to pursue a full-time Master's degree in Global Health at National Taiwan University (NTU). The program is taught entirely in English and is composed of international students. NTU's College of Public Health is the first and only public health school accredited by CEPH (Council on Education for Public Health) in Asia. The Master of Global Health program equips students with research expertise and methodology to solve critical public health issues, with an emphasis on international faculty, community-based research, and cultural sensitivity. The program incorporates world-leading guest speakers in areas including global health, environmental health, epidemiology, biostatistics, and healthcare policy and management. NTU is uniquely located in the heart of Asia with practicum opportunities available across Asia, Africa, and Europe. The award is co-sponsored by National Taiwan University and provides full tuition support, housing in a student dormitory, round-trip airfare, a monthly living allowance, and national health insurance. The grant is initially awarded for 12 months with renewal for the second year dependent upon maintaining a minimum GPA of 3.0 (B) on a 4.0 scale.
