The programme will allow awardees to complete a fully-funded Master’s or PhD programme at top universities in the US. The application form can be accessed on the USEFP website, (www.usefpakistan.org). The last day to file applications is May 15, 2019.
Women, people with disabilities, and students from rural and underrepresented areas are highly encouraged to apply. All disciplines are eligible except for clinical medicine.
Applicants studying energy, water, agriculture, public health, education, social sciences, journalism, mass communication, arts and culture management, including heritage conservation and museum studies, urban and regional planning, environmental science, studies, security, peace studies, and data science disciplines are strongly encouraged to apply.
“The Fulbright programme is a cornerstone of the strong ties between the American and Pakistani people,” said Christopher Fitzgerald, Minister Counselor for Public Affairs at the United States embassy in Pakistan.
“Fulbright is not just an academic scholarship – it is a programme that produces strong leaders who return to Pakistan upon completion of their studies and make a difference in improving their communities,” he said.
