Funding and partnership

The New Zealand Fulbright programme is jointly funded by the New Zealand and United States governments, as well as through partnerships with private sector organisations.

The support of these organisations allows us to offer more awards to New Zealand graduate students wanting to study in the United States.

We gratefully acknowledge the support of:

• The Earthquake Commission
• Creative New Zealand
• Ministry of Research, Science and Technology
• Ministry of Education

Corporate partnership opportunities

Fulbright New Zealand offers corporate partners the opportunity to invest in New Zealand's future leaders.

For over 50 years our Fulbright alumni have continued to reach the top of their professions and feature prominently in New Zealand life. In a world that increasingly operates without regard to national borders, the Fulbright experience fosters leaders who have the ability to think and act globally.

With the support of corporate partners we will see more of New Zealand's best and brightest graduate students reach their goals of gaining degrees from top American universities.

The achievements of these graduate students will maintain the prestige of the Fulbright name and its association with excellence. They will join an impressive list of national and international alumni including Nobel prize-winning scientists, Prime Ministers, parliamentarians, Ambassadors, top-ranking civil servants and world leaders in academia and the performing arts.

We invite you to consider becoming a Fulbright partner and help us offer more outstanding New Zealanders the opportunity to hold one of the world's most prestigious educational awards. If you would like to talk more about partnership opportunities, please contact Mele Wendt, Executive Director of Fulbright New Zealand.
