Program Overview:
The program is open both to academics and professionals. The academic year in Russia consists of two semesters, generally beginning the first week of September and the first week of February. Affiliations are available at a wide range of Russian academic institutions, but grantees are particularly encouraged to consider placement in the regions (i.e., not Moscow or St. Petersburg) where American scholars and teachers will typically find a more supportive, enthusiastic reception. Recent successful affiliations have been at institutions in Irkutsk, Kaliningrad, Kazan, Novosibirsk, Petrozavodsk, Pskov, Rostov-on-the-Don, Tomsk, Tula, Vladivostok, Vologda, Volgograd, Voronezh, Ulan Ude, and Yekaterinburg among others. Staff at the Moscow Fulbright Office will do everything possible to facilitate placement requests based on prior academic contacts, if available, between grantees and possible host institutions. English language schooling for dependent children is located in Moscow and St. Petersburg. Information on current activities and grantees can be found at www.fulbright.ru.
