Graduate study, research, or teaching (Fulbright Germany or Fulbright Austria)
Description: The Fulbright U.S. Student Program offers students and young professionals opportunities to undertake international graduate study, advanced research, English teaching (primary, secondary, or university), or artistic endeavors abroad. The program currently awards approximately 1,100 grants annually in all fields of study. Applicants must be a U.S. citizen, hold a B.A. degree or the equivalent before the start of the grant (in the creative performing arts, four years of professional study and/or experience meet the basic eligibility requirement). Other requirements appear here. As a first step, make sure to read the Fulbright Fellowship website carefully, since individual countries have different priorities, candidate profiles, and specific details.
