Vietnam Education Foundation (VEF) has announced that online application forms for the VEF Fellowship Program for funding to study in the U.S. are now available.
The deadline for students who haven’t yet got a place in a U.S. university is April 10. The deadline for students who have already secured a place at a university is March 10.
The VEF Fellowship Program is one of the key components of VEF’s mandate to enhance bilateral relations between the United States and Vietnam through international educational exchange programs that help improve Vietnamese Science and Technology (S&T) capacities.
VEF provides fellowships to the most talented Vietnamese for graduate study in the United States in S&T. Fellows are selected through a highly competitive, open and transparent process. VEF maintains high standards of excellence by choosing only top-notch students who demonstrate the ability to thrive in an U.S. academic setting.
In order to produce young scientists and faculty for Vietnam, VEF prefers Ph.D. candidates. Working experience or government affiliation is not required.
VEF has placed 306 Fellows at 70 top universities in the United States.
VEF was established by the U.S. Congress under the Vietnam Education Foundation Act (2000) with the purpose of establishing educational exchange activities for Vietnamese nationals and also for Americans to teach at Vietnamese universities.
To access the forms go to www.vef.gov.
