2018 Fulbright Visiting Scholar is now open
8 years ago
The Fulbright Visiting Scholar Program for Iraq brings junior Iraqi scholars to U.S. institutions during the
summer for 10 weeks of faculty development, mentoring, and cultural exchange activities. Participants
will be introduced to new teaching and research methods, observe classes, attend seminars, and develop
linkages with American faculty through weekly mentoring sessions. On-going community engagement with
university-identified host families, volunteers, or others in the broader local community will facilitate the
scholars’ participations in outreach activities, including visits to historical sites and attendance at cultural
events.
Please note that while an introduction to new research methods in the scholars’ disciplines does constitute
one important component of the program, this program is not intended to provide a venue for individual
research projects.
Scholars can focus on one of the following fields of study: Business Administration, Economics, and Global
Entrepreneurship, Engineering, Science and Technology, TEFL/Linguistics.
Program Dates: June 30 - September 8, 2018, for more information visit the link below:
