Program Overview:
Proposals in all disciplines will be considered from junior as well as senior scholars. The goals of the Fulbright Scholar Program with Brazil are to support collaborative research in all fields, strengthen Brazilian graduate education through teaching and contribute to broader and longer term U.S.-Brazil institutional linkages. Applicants without significant experience in Brazil are encouraged to apply, as are Brazilianists who can further knowledge and understanding of Brazil in the U.S. Applicants should request a letter of invitation from the prospective host institution in Brazil. The academic year is from March to December, with a one-month break in July. The Commission will consider serial grants which will allow the grant to be divided into shorter in-country stays over 2 consecutive years. In the case of a serial grant, the total number of months cannot exceed four. A maximum of two round-trip airfares for the grantee only will be provided for serial grantees. Applicants seeking contacts in Brazil should contact the Commission for Educational Exchange between the U.S. and Brazil for assistance; inquiries may be directed to Patricia Grijo at patricia@fulbright.org.br; tel. 55.11.3061.5342.
