Scholarship Description
“The Fulbright U.S. Student Program provides grants for individually designed study/research
projects or English Teaching Assistantships.
During their grants, Fulbrighters will meet, work, live with and learn from the people
of the host country, sharing daily experiences. The program facilitates cultural exchange
through direct interaction on an individual basis in the classroom, field, home, and
in routine tasks, allowing the grantee to gain an appreciation of others’ viewpoints
and beliefs, the way they do things, and the way they think. Through engagement in
the community, the individual will interact with their hosts on a one-to-one basis
in an atmosphere of openness, academic integrity, and intellectual freedom, thereby
promoting mutual understanding.
Grant lengths and dates vary by country. Please consult the specific country summary
for details.”
