The 2025 Global Scholars Program, offered by the Eisenhower Foundation, presents an unparalleled opportunity for individuals aged 20 to 30 to embark on a transformative academic journey.

Unveiling the Program

The Eisenhower Global Scholars Program is a prestigious initiative that selects four outstanding individuals each year to pursue postgraduate studies at two renowned European universities.

The Global Scholars will engage in a comprehensive academic year, delving into intensive postgraduate studies at their respective universities. The program offers two distinct tracks, each leading to a master’s degree:

1. Master in Public Policy: Hosted by the Blavatnik School of Government at the University of Oxford, this track is tailored for individuals with a keen interest in public service and effective governance.
2. Master in International Relations: Administered by the School of Global Public Affairs at IE University in Spain, this track focuses on the global economy, innovation, and entrepreneurship.

Networking Opportunities

Beyond the academic curriculum, Global Scholars will find themselves immersed in the Eisenhower Fellowships (EF) global network of Fellows. This invaluable connection opens doors to a diverse community of professionals, fostering collaboration, and creating lasting bonds.
