Deadline: 10-Jun-22
The U.S. Embassy in Uzbekistan is pleased to announce the Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship Program.
The Humphrey Fellowship Program is a Fulbright program that brings accomplished young and mid-career professionals from designated countries around the world to the United States for ten months of non-degree graduate study and related practical professional experiences. Fellowships are granted competitively to professionals with a commitment to public service in either the public or private sector.
Program Objectives
- During their year‐long stay at a host American university, Humphrey Fellows will take graduate level courses relevant to their professional interests.
- However, as the Humphrey Fellowship is not a degree program, participants spend a considerable portion of their time engaged in professional development activities, including: consultations and engagement with U.S. faculty and experts, field trips, workshops, research projects, and the development of practical strategies that could be applied in the Fellows’ home countries.
