The Council for International Exchange
of Scholars (CIES), under a cooperative agreement
with the United States Department of State, administers
the Fulbright Scholar Program for faculty and
professionals. Each year, the traditional
Fulbright Scholar Program sends some 800 U.S.
faculty and professionals to 140 countries to
lecture, do research or participate in seminars,
and some 800 foreign faculty come to the U.S.
Directories of recent participants in the U.S.

The Specialists Program offers short-term grants
of two to six weeks. The New
Century Scholars Program brings 30 top academics
and professionals from around the world together
each year to collaborate on an issue of global
importance.

public relations person and have questions about
the program or a particular scholar, please e-mail
