Fulbright Scholar Program for US Faculty and Professionals

The Fulbright Scholar Program is offering two awards in archaeology during the 2008-2009 academic year, a distinguished lecturing award in Austria and a research award in the United Kingdom. Faculty and professionals in archaeology may also apply for one of the many “All Discipline” awards open to any field.  Archaeology is a priority field for All Disciplines awards.  U.S. Fulbright Scholars in all regions of the world enjoy an experience of a lifetime, one that provides a broad cultural perspective on their academic disciplines and connects them with colleagues at institutions around the globe.  

 

Awards range from two months to an academic year.  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.

 

The application deadline for Fulbright traditional lecturing and research grants worldwide is August 1, 2007.  U.S. citizenship is required.
