Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship Program

Overview

Non-degree professional enrichment programme for accomplished professionals from eligible countries.

About U.S. Department of State

The Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship Program, funded by the U.S. Department of State, brings accomplished, early-to-mid-career professionals to the United States for a year of non-degree graduate-level study and professional collaboration at one of a set list of host U.S. universities. It's not aimed at students — candidates are expected to already hold substantial professional experience and a demonstrated record of leadership and public service in their home country.

Coverage & Financial Benefits

• Fully Funded

Requirements & Eligibility

• Target level: Mid-career professionals

How to Apply

1. 1Check your country's eligibility and apply through the U.S. Embassy or Fulbright Commission in your home country, since the Humphrey Program is administered through country-level Fulbright offices, not a single central US portal.
2. 2Prepare a professional development plan describing what you intend to achieve during the fellowship year, since this is central to the Humphrey selection process.
3. 3Submit your complete application to your local competent authority well ahead of that country's specific deadline, as timelines vary by country.
