The Council for International Exchange of Scholars awards Fulbright Scholarships to Americans for advanced research or for university lecturing abroad and for foreign scholars to come to the United States with a goal to foster international understanding.
Awards are available in all disciplines.
Foreign scholars should apply through the Fulbright agencies or the US Embassy in their home countries. Awards for US citizens include approximately 300 grants in research and 700 grants in university teaching and lecturing for periods ranging from two months to an academic year. There are openings in over 100 countries, and in a few cases, the opportunity for multicountry research is available. Call or write for more information and applications.
