Who can apply
Ugandan journalists qualify as international applicants because non-U.S. citizens apply through the international competition. Applicants must have at least five years of professional journalism experience and currently work for a news organisation or as an independent journalist. Eligible roles include reporters, editors, data journalists, visual journalists, audio producers, designers, developers, engagement specialists, entrepreneurs and newsroom change agents. Public-relations practitioners, lobbyists and degree seekers are not eligible.

About this opportunity
Knight-Wallace Fellowships provide mid-career journalists with an academic year at the University of Michigan to pursue an individual journalism project, deepen subject expertise and develop new professional skills. International journalists form part of each fellowship cohort.
Benefits
Fellows receive an USD 85,000 stipend distributed monthly from August through April plus USD 5,000 for relocation expenses. Wallace House pays costs associated with health insurance, auditing university courses, required workshops and fellowship activities and provides relocation and housing-search assistance. The programme includes specialised University of Michigan resources, private seminars, professional workshops and international fellowship travel.
Requirements
Applicants complete the international fellowship application describing their professional journalism record, proposed fellowship project and professional-development objectives and provide the supporting information and journalism work requested in the application. International selection includes a second application phase and interviews for finalists.
How to apply
The 2027-28 application is officially scheduled to open in October 2026. Review the international applicant instructions, then complete the Knight-Wallace application through the official OpenWater application platform. Submit the international application by 2026-12-01.
Find scholarships, postgraduate study and internships
Explore opportunities from Uganda and abroad. Location describes where an opportunity is based; check the official eligibility rules to confirm whether Ugandan, African or other international applicants can apply.
Fully funded scholarships in Canada, the USA and Europe
Compare undergraduate, master's and PhD awards by eligible nationality, subject and funding coverage. A tuition waiver does not necessarily cover living costs, insurance or travel. For medical study, confirm the exact degree and whether clinical training is included. High school awards have different age and admission requirements from university scholarships.
For US universities offering full scholarships, check the university's international admissions and financial aid pages. Confirm whether admission and funding require separate applications, and whether support is renewable each year.
Paid internships abroad and online internships
For internships in Europe or elsewhere, check nationality and enrolment requirements, the stipend, accommodation and travel coverage. Paid does not necessarily mean fully funded. Remote internships may still restrict the countries where participants can work. To intern abroad without programme fees, compare direct employer applications and check which costs you must pay yourself.
For summer placements, verify the start date and application year in the official call. Search the listings for a provider or subject, such as Expedia, EU delegation traineeships or agriculture in Germany, and confirm availability with that organisation.
NGO jobs, entry-level jobs and internships in Uganda
Check the posting date, closing date, duty station and required experience. For jobs with no experience, look for an explicit entry-level or graduate requirement; an urgent vacancy may still require experience. Verify American Embassy vacancies through the embassy's official recruitment service and New Vision vacancies against the original employer notice.
Application years and named scholarship programmes
Use the intake and deadline in each listing when comparing 2026 and 2027 opportunities. A 2022 notice is historical unless the provider has published a new call. Before applying to Yale Young African Scholars or an opportunity described as a UNICEF scholarship, verify the programme name, funding and current eligibility directly with the organisation. A search phrase alone does not confirm an available award.
