Marshall Sherfield Fellowship 2025

Marshall Sherfield Fellowship 2025

We are pleased to let you know that the 2025 Marshall Sherfield Fellowship application has been extended to the 13th December 2024. The Marshall Aid Commemoration Commission will offer one Marshall Sherfield Fellowship for post-doctoral research in any area of science and engineering.

First awarded in 1998 to mark the 50th anniversary of the Marshall Plan and funded by the Marshall Sherfield Fellowship Foundation, the aim of the Marshall Sherfield Fellowships is to introduce American scientists and engineers to the cutting edge of UK science and engineering. It is intended to build long-term contacts and international links between the United Kingdom and the United States in key scientific areas. The wider objectives are similar to those of the Marshall Scholarships programme:

  • To enable intellectually distinguished young Americans, their country's future leaders, to study in the UK.
  • To help fellows gain an understanding and appreciation of contemporary Britain
  • To contribute to the advancement of knowledge in science and technology at Britain's centres of academic excellence.
  • To motivate fellows to act as ambassadors from the USA to the UK and vice versa throughout their lives thus strengthening British American understanding.
  • To promote the personal and academic fulfilment of each fellow.

To qualify, candidates should:

- be citizens of the United States of America normally resident in the USA;

- hold a doctorate in a science or engineering subject by the time they take up their Fellowship.
