Fulbright U.S. - Indonesia Initiative

Due to a recent expansion of the Fulbright program with Indonesia, several new grant opportunities are available for U.S. scholars interested in visiting Indonesian universities during the 2013-2014 academic year.

The following initiative applies to core Fulbright Scholar grants and Fulbright Specialist grants.

As a special exception, U.S. scholars who have reached their lifetime limit on Fulbright scholar grants are eligible to apply for additional grants to Indonesia.  The usual required waiting period of five years between grants has also been waived.  These exemptions are valid for three years from August 1, 2010 through August 1, 2013. The American Indonesian Exchange Foundation (AMINEF) will be pleased to assist U.S. scholars who do not have prior experience in Indonesia in finding appropriate placements at Indonesian universities.

Core Program

U.S. scholars in the fields of education, economics, religious studies, science, engineering, and mathematics will find especially interested Indonesian university hosts. However, applicants in all academic fields are encouraged to apply.

Scholars interested in a three- to 10-month grant in Indonesia must submit an application by August 1, 2012.

Specialist Program

Qualified U.S. scholars or professionals interested in having their credentials reviewed for placement on the Fulbright Specialist Roster should contact fulspec@iie.org.

Please Note: If a project proposal submitted by an Indonesian host university calls for repeat visits by a U.S. Fulbright Specialist, a grantee may visit Indonesia up to three times under the same grant.
