Consider Participating in International Exchange With Fulbright
We understand that you have previously submitted a letter of reference for a Fulbright applicant, but have you ever personally considered the benefits of collaborating with colleagues in your discipline on an international level?
The Core Fulbright U.S. Scholar Program is accepting applications from American academics and professionals until August 1, 2016. There are over 475 teaching and/or research awards available in more than 125 countries for the 2017-2018 award cycle.
Please view the Catalog of Awards to review the many award offerings. Eligibility criteria, application guidelines, review criteria, as well as other resources are available on our website. We also offer webinarsthroughout the application season, which provide additional details about our Program and allow for audience Q&A participation.
If you have any reservations in regards to the potential length of time spent abroad, many awards offer the option for Flex, which allows a grant to be split into two or three short-term stays abroad.
Our Program Staff would be happy to provide regional or discipline-specific insight and answer any questions you may have. Please feel welcome to share this email and information with interested colleagues. We hope you will consider how your skill set could be applied to a global audience with a large international reach.
Good luck! We look forward to receiving your application.
Warm regards,
