Fulbright Scholars Program

Fulbright Scholar Program - opportunities for faculty and scholars

The Fulbright Scholar Program offers nearly 500 teaching, research or combination teaching/research awards in over 160 countries. Opportunities are available for college and university faculty and administrators as well as for professionals, artists, journalists, scientists, lawyers, independent scholars and many others. In addition to several new program models designed to meet the changing needs of U.S. academics and professionals, Fulbright is offering more opportunities for flexible, multi-country grants. To learn more about this range of programs visit the Fulbright Scholar Program site at https://fulbrightscholars.org/

Note: Pairing a sabbatical with a Fulbright award is one of the best ways to make the most of a Fulbright grant.

Info Sessions and resources

If you were unable to attend our virtual information session on April 5, 2024, a recording of Ms. Alexa Rowland's session is embedded below.

In this virtual Fulbright Scholar Program webinar, PSU faculty can learn about exciting opportunities available for teaching, research, and professional development around the world. These opportunities are designed to broaden faculty's horizons, deepen their knowledge, and expand their network in their field of expertise. Many PSU faculty plan for their Fulbright program to coincide with their sabbatical year.  

Our speaker, Ms. Alexa Rowland from IIE Fulbright in New York has shared tips for applicants and given insights on how these programs have impacted the research, teaching, and career growth of past and current Fulbrighters. This hour-long session also discusses eligibility requirements, application procedures, and basic selection criteria of the program.
