American health care study scholarship
Award
Harkness Fellowship Awarded for study of healthcare practice and policy in the United States for students from abroad Sponsored by The Commonwealth Fund Formerly called The Commonwealth Fellowship Established 1925 Website www.commonweathfund.org
The Harkness Fellowship (previously known as the Commonwealth Fund Fellowship ) is a program run by the Commonwealth Fund of New York City. This fellowship was established to reciprocate the Rhodes Scholarships and enable Fellows from several countries to spend time studying in the United States.[1]
Recipients of the scholarship include a president of the International Court of Justice ; former chairman and CEO of Salomon Brothers ; a former Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge ; the controller of BBC Radio 4 ; the editor of the Sunday Times Medical Research Council , the London School of Economics and the General Medical Council ; and a vice president of Microsoft .
History
[ edit ]
The Commonwealth Fund is a philanthropic foundation established in the United States by Anna Harkness in 1918. Her son, Edward Stephen Harkness , initiated the Commonwealth Fund Fellowships in 1925. These were intended to reciprocate the Rhodes Scholarships by enabling British graduates to study in the United States. In 1927 the scheme was widened by the creation of Dominion Fellowships available to graduates from universities in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and South Africa. In 1929 a further category of Dominion Civil Service Fellowships was established. The awards were tenable from nine to fifteen months and candidates were to be under the age of 40.
In 1961 the Fellowships were renamed the Harkness Fellowships. In addition to the Civil Service Fellowships, a new category of General Fellowships was set up, open to people in the fields of business, banking, politics, creative arts and journalism. The maximum tenure period was extended to 21 months.
Since June 1997, the activities of the Harkness Fellowships have been limited to the field of health care. The Fellowships are now considered one of the most prestigious award programs in health policy, and accept Fellows from Australia , Canada (known as Harkness Associates ), France, Germany , the Netherlands , New Zealand , Norway (as of 2009), Switzerland (as of 2009) and the United Kingdom .[2]
Current fellowship program
[ edit ]
Harkness Fellows in Health Care Policy & Practice spend a year conducting research at American institutions such as Harvard University , Brigham and Women's Hospital , Columbia University , Stanford University , Johns Hopkins University , Kaiser Permanente , or the Veterans Health Administration . They gain an in-depth understanding of the U.S. health care system and policy challenges, enhance their research skills, and develop contacts and opportunities for ongoing international collaboration.
In addition, Fellows attend a program of seminars during the year:
September: Orientation and Qualitative Research Methodology Workshop
November: International Symposium on Healthcare Policy, bringing together Health Ministers from Australia, Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States
February: Washington Policy Briefing held on Capitol Hill with members of the United States Congress and senior government officials
May: Canadian Policy Briefing on Federal and provincial health
June: Final Reporting Seminar and the AcademyHealth Annual Research Meeting
