Grants

Posted March 11, 2008:

Fulbright Scholar Program for US Faculty and Professionals

The Fulbright Scholar Program is offering 10 lecturing, research or combined lecturing/research awards in social work during the 2009-2010 academic year. U.S. Fulbright Scholars in over 130 countries around the world enjoy an experience of a lifetime, gaining a broad cultural perspective on their academic disciplines and connecting with colleagues at institutions around the globe.

Awards range from two months to an academic year. Faculty and professionals in social work apply for awards specifically in their field or for one of the many "All Discipline" awards open to any field. Grants are awarded to faculty of all academic ranks, including adjunct and emeritus. In most countries lecturing is in English, though awards in Latin America, Francophone Africa, and the Middle East may require proficiency in another language. U.S. citizenship is required.

Deadline: August 1, 2008.

For other eligibility requirements, detailed award descriptions, and an application, visit their website at http://www.cies.org, or send a request for materials to apprequest@cies.iie.org.
