Need-Based International Grants at Norwich University, USA

The University of Michigan

Eligibility

The African Studies Center recognizes that international African students studying at MSU have limited opportunities to apply for grants and fellowships to conduct research in Africa - usually reserved for citizens and permanent residents of the United States. For this reason,

Only African undergraduate or graduate students conducting research in Africa are eligible for this fellowship.

Applicants must be currently enrolled in an MSU degree-granting program, and awardees must return to MSU as registered students in the semester following the award. 

Priority will be given to students in good academic standing and with demonstrated financial need. 

Applicants must successfully complete any MSU requirements related to doing research abroad (IRB training for instance) 

Fellowship recipients must write and submit a report (3 to 5 pages) to the African Studies Center within one month of their return from Africa. 

 The Stanford SURF Fellowship 2025 aims to engage students in Research activities and encourage them to pursue graduate studies in engineering.
