Hubert H. Humphrey Program at Michigan State University

Thirteen major American universities have been chosen to host Humphrey Fellows based on the universities' excellence in designated fields of study and for the resources and support they offer the fellows. Michigan State University's Humphrey Fellowship Program, which focuses on economic development, has been in place since 2002. Since that time, MSU has hosted 259 fellows from 101 countries. Humphrey Fellows at MSU have participated in a variety of areas of study and research, including business, economics, public policy, human resources, community sustainability, and law. Fellows bring an international perspective and years of experience, which they share with faculty and students, the university, and the community at large. In addition, fellows learn about American perspectives on leadership, professional practices, and culture.
