Full opportunity detailsScholars worldwide, including Ugandans, must hold faculty or professional research appointments outside the United States and return afterward. A PhD generally awarded after 1 September 2017 is required. Current doctoral students and postdocs are ineligible. Visa sponsorship depends on the available category.
Scholars undertake a ten-month research appointment around the theme Democracy in Crisis? Fellows contribute to interdisciplinary discussion and Princeton\'s intellectual community.
Benefits
A visiting research appointment, institutional research access and participation in the fellowship\'s academic community. Remuneration follows the individual appointment terms.
Requirements
English cover letter of up to 1.5 pages; CV with publications; three-page research proposal; writing sample of up to fifty pages; and three recommendations. Successful candidates need employer release.
How to apply
Apply through Princeton\'s Interfolio call and ensure all materials and references arrive by 23:59 Eastern Time. Email and postal applications are not accepted.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
