The US-UK Fulbright Commission is pleased to announce its annual competition for its UK Fulbright Summer Institutes. Academically talented UMBC freshmen and sophomores of any major with little to no previous international travel experience and/or are first-generation college students are particularly encouraged to apply! Applicants can choose from one of six summer institutes across the United Kingdom with topics ranging from Climate Change to Social Justice in a British context.
The UK Summer Institutes last between three and four weeks, and almost all costs, including tuition, fees, housing, most meals and airfare, are included. Applications are due by February 3, 2025.
Dr. Brian Souders, Associate Director of Global Learning in UMBC's Education Abroad Office, is hosting two information sessions, one in-person and one virtual, to help students decide which of these scholarship opportunities is best for them.
