Graduate Studies Scholarship Opportunity | Info Session

In May 2024, Georgetown University-The Earth Commons Institute launched its first summer course in Greece. Did you know, however, that Fulbright Greece since 2022, has offered a unique opportunity to a Greek graduate student for a double scholarship to study at Georgetown University | The Earth Commons—Georgetown’s Institute for Environment & Sustainability? Candidates can select from three different Eco graduate programs: The Georgetown Master of Science in Environment and Sustainability Management (MS-ESM), The Georgetown Master of Science in Environment and International Affairs (MS-EIA), or Georgetown University’s Master of Science in Climate, Environment & Health (MS-CEH)

The Fulbright Georgetown Partner Award is targeted at students who want to tackle environmental issues through interdisciplinary expertise and practical skills. Georgetown University will provide a scholarship that matches the grant amount awarded by Fulbright Greece to a student from Greece who has been  nominated by Fulbright Greece and admitted to the Georgetown MS-ESM, MS-EIA or MS-CEH. Candidates will submit independent applications to Fulbright Greece and Georgetown University.

University of Athens

The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, which was inaugurated on May 3, 1837, was initially housed in a renovated Ottoman building on the northeastern side of the Acropolis. This building has since been restored and now functions as the University Museum. Originally named the "Othonian University," after Otto, the first king of Greece, it consisted of four academic departments and 52 students. As the first university of the newly established Greek state, as well as of the broader Balkan and Mediterranean region, it assumed an important socio-historical role, which was pivotal in the development of specific forms of knowledge and culture within the country.
