US embassy invites PNG citizens to apply for 10-month fellowship programme

Youth & Careers

THE United States embassy is inviting PNG citizens to apply for the Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship programme.
The 10-month fellowship consists of academic coursework and an internship in a relevant professional organisation.
Fellows are accomplished mid-career professionals with demonstrated leadership and the capacity to develop a self-defined programme of independent academic and professional development.
Only online applications will be accepted. Applications are due on May 4 at https://iie.embark.com/auth/login
Humphrey Fellows pursue graduate-level study in the United States, build leadership skills and build mutual cultural understanding with Americans.
Because the Humphrey Fellowship does not offer a degree, Humphrey Fellows design and implement individualised programmes to acquire career-related knowledge, interact with colleagues and gain professional experience.
It includes arrangements for a six-week professional internship.
Fellows may also attend special enrichment activities during their programme to network with Humphrey Fellows from other countries and to interact with prominent Americans across a range of professions.
