Students who apply for the AIEJ Peace and Friendship Scholarship are expected to promote mutual understanding and friendship during their stay in Japan by participating in activities sponsored by local communities and city government, etc. Upon completion of stay, students are asked to submit to the AIEJ a report based upon their experience. Fulbright offers a wide variety of grants to study and research abroad. The Fulbright program has opportunities available for both students and professionals. For over 50 years the Fulbright Scholar Program has offered grants for college and university, as well as for professionals and independent scholars, to lecture and conduct research in countries around the globe.
Most grantees plan their own programs.
Projects may include university course-work, independent library or field research, classes in a music conservatory or art school, special projects in the social or life sciences, or a combination. For those described in this statement, Fulbright Full Grants, Fulbright Travel Grants, and Foreign and Private Grants are available. However, other types of grants offer a wider range of potential countries to explore and experience.
