International Research Fellowships for Graduate Students in STEM

Tuesday, April 7, 2026

12:30 PM-1:30 PM

An international research experience can be an enriching and exciting part of your graduate education. This session will discuss several fellowships that facilitate international research experiences for graduate students, including research completed for thesis credit or in supplement to your studies.

The programs discussed will include the Fulbright U.S. Student Program, the Boren Fellowship, ThinkSwiss, DAAD RISEPro. We will also discuss several internal awards through Drexel, including the Banu Onaral Global Innovation Partnerships Fellowship, through which any Drexel graduate student (including BS-MS students) can apply for funding to conduct international research related to biomedical engineering.

We will also be joined by Samuel Sung, 2025-26 Fulbright US Student Program Recipient to Germany and inaugural recipient of the GIP Fellowship, to discuss his experience with the application processes and conducting doctoral research in Germany.

This session will provide a brief overview of each award and where it can fit into your Drexel degree, including information about internal application processes and application support available through Drexel. More information about external programs can also be found in our fellowships database. More information on the GIP Fellowship can be found here.
