"The Fulbright program gave me the opportunity to immerse myself in another culture and connect with my co-teachers, students, and other people in the community in meaningful ways."
The Fulbright Program is the flagship international educational exchange program sponsored by the U.S. government and is designed to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries. The Fulbright Program administers grant opportunities in more than 160 countries and has provided approximately 370,000 participants with the opportunity to study, teach, or conduct research in each others' countries and exchange ideas. Approximately 8,000 competitive, merit-based grants are awarded annually in most academic disciplines and fields of study.
