Description
Fulbright Denmark supports one academic year of full-time graduate study, research, or combined study and research at Danish higher education institutions. The program offers 10 Open Study/Research Awards for master’s-level work, visiting PhD research, or the first year of a Danish master’s degree. Funding covers only one year, not an entire multiyear degree.
The program seeks academically outstanding, independent students who will promote mutual understanding as U.S. cultural ambassadors. All fields are welcome, with priority given to life sciences, space, and environmental responsibility or sustainable practices, including Arctic studies. A separate Arctic Semester option combines study at Aarhus University’s Arctic Research Centre with coursework and field experience at the Greenland Institute of Natural Resources in Nuuk.
