USA: 2011-2012 Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowships (HHH) for Jordan

Overview

The Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship Program is a Fulbright program that brings accomplished mid-level professionals to the United States for a year of academic and professional work. By providing future leaders and policy makers with experience in U.S. society, culture, and professional fields, the program provides a basis for lasting, productive ties between Americans and their professional counterparts overseas. Fellows are nominated by the Binational Fulbright Commission in Jordan based on demonstrated potential for leadership and commitment to public service. Final approval of candidates recommended by this Commission and the independent panels in Washington, D.C.is provided by the FSB.

A Fellow's professional-development plan may include professional visits, conferences, and a professional affiliation (work attachment) which must be at least six weeks in duration. Early in the academic year, each Fellow develops, with assistance from the local campus coordinator and faculty advisors, a plan for professional activities carefully geared to the Fellow's need for relevant, practical professional experiences.


The eligible fields are:

-- Agricultural Development/ Agricultural Economics
-- Communications/Journalism
-- Substance Abuse Education, Treatment and Prevention in cooperation with the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) in co-funding Humphrey Fellowships in substance abuse treatment and prevention. Candidates in this field must either have a research background in the field or demonstrate an ability to learn to understand the results and policy implications of current research. The candidates will be recruited and ranked together with candidates in other fields, and must complete a supplementary field-specific application page.
-- Economic Development/Finance and Banking
-- Educational Administration, Planning and Policy
-- HIV/AIDS Policy and Prevention
-- Human Resource Management
-- Law and Human Rights

Eligible Candidate

Appropriate candidates are mid-career professionals in leadership positions who have a commitment to public service and the potential for professional advancement. Prospective Fellows should have a minimum of five years of professional experience, after completing a university degree, prior to April 2010 and should be interested in the policy aspects of their fields of specialization. Candidates must have completed a university degree program requiring at least four years of full-time study in order to qualify for admission to U.S. programs of graduate study. Candidates should be proficient in both written and spoken English and should normally have a minimum Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) score of 232 on the computer-based test, or 90-91 in the Internet Based Test. (Candidates with lower scores may be nominated for the Long-Term English training.) In general, candidates should have both the need to participate in the program and the potential to benefit from it. Accordingly, they should demonstrate the required experience, skills, and commitment while also indicating how they can benefit from this program in ways that they have not experienced previously and are not likely to experience without the Humphrey Program.
