“Throughout all my research experiences, I have never been in a lab that is more collaborative.”
“With the freedom of the Churchill Scholarship, I was allowed to take it slow and pursue questions that seemed the most meaningful.”
“I learned how meaningful my friendships are and … that the future is an adventure I don't have to go through alone.”
“This experience helped me become a much more independent researcher.”
“I've been able to mature and develop as a researcher in ways I'm not sure would have been possible had I entered a US PhD program directly.”
Experience a year of independent research at Cambridge University.
Most Churchill Scholars describe their year in Cambridge as the best year of their lives. What makes the experience so unique?
  • You have the opportunity to focus on your own research without other obligations.
  • Cambridge labs are non-hierarchical, and you are treated as a valued team member.
  • The academic culture emphasizes work-life balance.
  • You form friendships with future colleagues from all over the world.
  • Churchill College is the only college at Cambridge that focuses on STEM subjects.
  • Most Scholars who go on to a PhD or MD take a different path than they expected before this experience.
In short, the Churchill Scholarship is transformational and will shape your life and career for years to come.
