Mitchell Scholarship Program, a prestigious, competitive scholarship to enable American university graduates to pursue a year of study at institutions of higher learning in Ireland and Northern Ireland. The scholarship was named in honor of Senator Mitchell’s pivotal contribution to the Northern Ireland peace process.

The 1998 Act also empowered the Minister for Education and Science of Ireland to enter into an agreement with persons who will manage and control the Fund.
