One of the few Fulbright programs that exclusively serves institutions, SIR funds the work of Visiting Scholars hosted by Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Hispanic-serving institutions, Native American tribal colleges, community colleges and small, liberal arts institutions. Your institution is invited to learn how SIR can help advance its international presence, assist in faculty and curriculum development, and diversify the educational experiences of its students, scholars and surrounding community.

Kalamazoo College President Eileen Wilson-Oyelaran discusses how the Fulbright Scholar-in-Residence Program can be a resource for institutions. More Videos >
