Burse pentru studenti

The Embassy of the United States of America in Moldova is pleased to announce the Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship Program competition for the 2022-2023 academic year.

The Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship Program brings accomplished young and mid-career professionals with demonstrated leadership potential to the United States for an academic year of non-degree graduate-level study, leadership development, and substantive professional collaboration with U.S. counterparts.  By providing future leaders with experience in U.S. society, culture, and professional fields, the program provides a basis for lasting, productive ties between Americans and their Moldovan professional counterparts. While program participants receive a certificate from the U.S. Government, the program is not designed to deliver an advanced degree.

Candidates:

• must have citizenship of the Republic of Moldova and permanent residence in the country (permanent residents of the Transnistrian region may be considered regardless of citizenship)
• be eligible for a U.S. J-1 visa. Program participants must return to and reside in Moldova for two years after completion of their program
• should have a minimum of five years full-time professional experience in the relevant field
• should be interested in the policy aspects of their field of specialization.
• must have completed a university degree program
• should have specific objectives for a research/study project
• should be proficient in both written and spoken English.  Selected finalists will be required to take the TOEFL, which the Embassy will pay for.

Ineligible candidates include:

• recent university graduates (even if they currently hold significant positions);
• university professors or academic researchers with no management responsibilities (except in the fields of Substance Abuse Education, Prevention, and Treatment and Teaching of English as a Foreign Language);
• individuals who have attended a graduate school in the United States for one academic year or more during the seven years prior to the program;
• individuals with U.S. in-country experience of any kind lasting more than six months during the five years prior to the program.
• individuals with dual U.S. citizenship or U.S. permanent resident status may not apply to the program
