Do you want to be part of the change leading to a more diverse US diplomatic corps?
Did you know there are multiple competitive fellowships for summer programs and graduate study in fields related to this career trajectory?

The Fellowships Office is hosting a virtual information session on Thursday, Sept. 10th at 4 pm, on three programs that can support your preparation for careers in this field. Featured participants: Director of Diplomatic Fellowships (for Rangel & Pickering) Patricia Scroggs, Howard University, and UR International Relations alumna Justine King '15/2016 Rangel Graduate Fellow.

Rangel Graduate Fellowship in International Affairs (deadline: October 14th)
Pickering Foreign Affairs Fellowship Program (deadline: October 21st) Current seniors/5th-year program students and recent graduates can apply now if also applying to eligible graduate degree programs for matriculation in fall 2021. First-years, sophomores, and juniors are highly encouraged to attend to get a head-start on learning what makes a competitive candidate.
Rangel International Affairs Summer Enrichment Program, open to sophomores (deadline: early February) Current first-years and sophomores encouraged to attend.

Eligibility criteria for these programs:

Spring 2020:

We may all be sheltering in place for the foreseeable future, but one day we'll be able to travel again. The Fulbright US Student Program offers one way to do this: recent graduates can study, teach, or research abroad while serving as ambassadors of US culture.

Join the Fellowships Office for an on-line info session and conversation about what YOU could do with a Fulbright.
