About this opportunity
Miller Research Fellowships support exceptional early-career scientists pursuing independent basic-science research at UC Berkeley. Approximately ten to twelve fellows are selected annually for three years of research without teaching obligations.
Benefits
The fellowship provides an initial annual stipend of USD 95,000 with 3 percent annual increases, USD 10,000 per year in research funding, travel to Berkeley for the fellow and immediate family, a USD 3,000 relocation allowance, medical, dental and vision insurance and additional leave and insurance benefits. The Institute estimates the total value of the 2027-2030 package at approximately USD 378,000.
Requirements
Direct applications and self-nominations are not accepted. An eligible department chair, professor, faculty adviser or research scientist must first nominate the candidate online. Accepted nominees are invited to submit the fellowship application and required research, academic and reference materials.
How to apply
Ask an eligible academic or research professional to submit the online nomination by 11:59 PM Pacific Time on 2026-09-10. If the nomination is accepted, complete the invited fellowship application and arrange all required supporting and reference materials.
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.
