 The program further aims to strengthen resources for enriching understanding of relevant global issues. The program offers a unique opportunity for U.S. colleges and universities to host specialists from countries with significant Muslim populations for short-term programs of intensive lecturing, public outreach, and consultation.
The Fulbright Visiting Specialists will lecture on and off campus in a variety of humanities and social science disciplines, including the arts, with a focus on Islamic society or civilization. The Fulbright Visiting Specialists Program encourages interreligious dialogue through on-campus and off-campus activities. The Visiting Specialists will also work together with the U.S. host institutions on projects with lasting benefits such as curriculum consultation, faculty development, and institutional linkage-building. |
