Application
The Fellowship is available to all nationals (except Singaporeans). In order to qualify for the Fellowship, an applicant must be enrolled in the MPM programme. Due to the prestige of the Fellowship, not all awards will be made unless there are candidates of sufficient merit.
In addition to meeting the stringent criteria for entry into the MPM programme, all Fellows should also demonstrate exceptional academic ability and professional distinction. Fellows may not concurrently hold any other scholarship, fellowship or award without the prior approval of the School. There is no bond or obligation for the Fellow to be employed by NUS or in Singapore.
Applications for the MPM 2008 programme are now open. The application deadline is 30 September 2007. Click here for the application booklet and the financial aid application form.
