Summary
The University of Pittsburg, Global Studies Center (GSC) is offering fellowship opportunities to individuals from developing countries who demonstrate potential as future leaders in the public, government, non-profit, or private sectors. Heinz Fellowships are granted to individuals from developing countries who demonstrate potential as future leaders in the public, government, non-profit, or private sectors. The goal is to improve, early in a career, a Fellow’s capacity to contribute to the development of their country and to enhance their understanding of the U.S. The Fellowship has been restructured beginning with the 2012-13 academic year to align with specific Master’s programs of Pitt professional schools. The GSC no longer directly accepts Heinz applications. Candidates that are interested in applying for the Fellowship should please get in touch with the professional school they applied to after receipt of your acceptance.
