University of Oxford Scholarships

In 2004, the Hepatitis B Foundation entered into an historic agreement with the University of Oxford to sponsor a joint training program to recruit college graduates into science. Candidates who have successfully completed college or a STEER Fellowship are eligible to apply through the Hepatitis B Foundation for enrollment into scientific doctoral studies at the University of Oxford. This is only one of two such programs the University of Oxford offers in the United States (the second program is with The Scripps Institute in La Jolla, CA).

An admissions committee comprised of the Hepatitis B Foundation, Institute for Hepatitis and Virus Research, and Drexel Institute will review all applications. Qualified candidates will be presented to the University of Oxford for their review and a final decision. If accepted by Oxford, the Hepatitis B Foundation will provide a full tuition scholarship with a small living stipend for up to two students.
