Ortiz: Fulbright U.S. Student program workshop: Learn about grants to conduct research or English teaching abroad

The Offce of Global Engagement is sponsoring a workshop on Thursday, March 2, 2023 (details below) to introduce students to the Fulbright U.S. Student Program. This program, sponsored by the U.S. Department of State, is a prestigious scholarship program providing opportunities for U.S. citizens to study, conduct research, or teach English abroad. Applications for the 2024-25 award cycle open in April.

The program offers various types of grants, including:

• Study/Research Grants: These grants are available to students who wish to conduct independent research or study at a foreign university.

• English Teaching Assistant (ETA) Grants: These grants are available to U.S. citizens who wish to teach English in a foreign country.

The workshop provides information about the eligibility requirements for the program, the various types of grants available, and the application process. Participants will also receive tips on how to write a successful application and have the opportunity to ask questions about the program.

The program has a competitive application process, and applicants must demonstrate academic excellence, leadership potential, and cross-cultural adaptability. Recipients of the Fulbright scholarship have the opportunity to gain international experience, build relationships with people from other countries, and gain a deeper understanding of different cultures.
