The RHS Interchange Fellowship for American Students for Studying at Leading Horticultural Centres in the UK

Study Subject: Horticulture

Employer: RHS and GCA

Level: Masters

RHS is pleased to partner The Garden Club of America (GCA) in a unique scholarship which sets out to develop the horticultural leaders of the future.

This scholarship offers financial aid towards either a year of post graduate study in the United States or a non-academic practical work placement (introduced in 2009) at a range of prestige public gardens. The programme is an exchange fellowship, sponsored jointly by the GCA in the United States and the RHS in the United Kingdom.

An American student spends a year working and studying at leading horticultural centres in the UK. The association of the Interchange Fellowship with the Royal Horticultural Society provides the opportunity for the American scholars to make a wide variety of contacts through the longstanding wealth of experience that the RHS has established within British and International Horticulture.

Scholarship Application Deadline: 31 October 2011
