Fulbright
Program overview
The Fulbright program involves international exchange of faculty members, and is sponsored by the U.S. government. It is designed to increase mutual understanding between people of the U.S. and other countries. It has provided approximately 300,000 opportunities to study, teach and conduct research, exchange ideas, and find solutions to shared international concerns. The program was established in 1946 through legislation by Senator Fulbright of Arkansas. It is sponsored by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. There are a number of programs available to faculty members, including the Core Fulbright Program, with a deadline in August, the Fulbright Specialist Program, with a rolling deadline, the Fulbright New Century Scholars Program, and the Fulbright Distinguished Chairs program.
