those interests. Some applicants will want
to see how others live, some will want to
serve those in need, some will want to
explore career fields, and some will just
want to embark on a great personal
adventure. There are no restrictions on the
reason for travel.
The $1500 award is meant to be a supplement

Whitaker
International Fellows and Scholars Program -
Graduate |
Varies |

As the field of biomedical engineering has
developed, it has expanded into a global
discipline. As biomedical engineers in the
United States, you know that work in the
field is becoming more refined, and

research may not be domestic. At this time,
there are few opportunities to go abroad and
leverage international expertise. However,
one of those opportunities is the Whitaker
International Fellows and Scholars Program.
The goal of the Whitaker International
Fellows and Scholars Program is to assist in
the development of professional leaders who
are not only superb engineers and
scientists, but who also will lead and serve
the profession with an international
outlook. The Whitaker Foundation encourages
young biomedical engineers who are keen for
an international experience to take
advantage of this program.
|
|
Eligibility: U.S. citizens who will
have completed their bachelors or masters
degree within two years of the program start
date but have not received a doctorate
degree and who have the language ability to
carry out their project in the host country. |
