Undergraduate Opportunities

A grant of up to $30,000 can be awarded to eligible juniors who wish to pursue graduate studies in preparation for a career in government, serving the public, or in the non-profit sector. Recipients also receive prestigious internship and networking opportunities.

 

This scholarship provides up to $7,500 per year for educational expenses for outstanding US students with excellent academic records and demonstrated interest in, and potential for, careers in math, natural science, and engineering.

The Morris K. Udall Undergraduate Scholarship supports scholarship and excellence in national environmental policy. Scholarships are granted to sophomores and juniors who intend to pursue careers related to environmental sustainability or to Native Americans and Alaska Natives.

 

This scholarship provides up to $20,000 to US undergraduate students to study abroad in areas of the world that are critical to US interests. Boren scholars represent a variety of academic backgrounds, but all are interested in studying less commonly taught languages.

Post-Graduation Opportunities

Opportunities are available to undertake international graduate study, conduct research, and teach English worldwide. The program facilitates cultural exchange through direct interaction on an extended experience abroad.

Up to $40,000 per year can be awarded to students who enroll full-time in a master's degree program in either public policy, international affairs, public administration, or in an academic field such as business, economics, political science, sociology, or foreign language.

The fellowship enables US graduate students to add an international and language component to their education through specialization in area study, language study, or increased language proficiency in regions other than Western Europe, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

Pre-doctoral, dissertation, and post-doctoral awards are made to individuals who demonstrate superior academic achievement and have a commitment to a career in teaching and research at the college or university level.
