Awards are open for 2016-17. The application deadline is 13 October 2015.
In the 2016-17 cycle, one Fulbright-Aberystwyth University International Relations Award will be offered to pursue a one-year Master’s degree programme within the International Politics Department (excluding the Food & Water Security MA and the Politics, Media and Performance MA, as well as any PhD programme) at Aberystwyth University.
Please note: Partner Awards no longer require a letter of affiliation from the international office, department, or supervisor of your intended programme or research project.
Benefits
Fulbright Awards offer generous financial support for one year of study in the UK. Award funding is intended as a contribution toward the first academic year of tuition fees and general maintenance costs whilst in the UK. Grants are paid in instalments directly to the grantee.
In this Award category, the grantee will receive a full tuition fee waiver from the University of Aberystwyth. In addition, the grantee will receive £12,000 which is intended as a contribution towards general maintenance costs (accommodation, travel, subsistence, etc) while in the UK.
Applying
Making an application
The Fulbright application is similar to, but separate from an application to a university or academic institution. Candidates choose and apply to the university(ies) and/or academic programme(s) in the UK they wish to attend directly and independently. Please refer to the timeline to see when to apply to Fulbright, as this may differ from the timeline for applying to academic programmes, universities, and institutions. A Fulbright Award is contingent upon gaining acceptance to the chosen UK institution and/or programme.
