1. Register your interest or refer colleagues to receive information about the Fulbright Scholar Program. IIE/CIES contacts all referrals, providing valuable information about the award offerings and application process.
2. Share this message; the following links will be useful for potential applicants:

• Application Guidelines: including sample project statements

Applicants must be U.S. citizens and the current competition will close on August 1, 2017.
