The Office of Global Affairs invites faculty and senior administrators to join us on Friday, February 9 from noon to 1:15 ET to learn more about the Fulbright Specialist Program , a program of the U.S. Department of State Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. The Fulbright Specialist Program provides U.S. citizens who are established professionals or academics and possess expertise in qualifying disciplines with the opportunity to engage in short-term (2-6 week) project-based exchanges at host institutions around the globe.

During this information session, Senior Outreach Officer for the Fulbright Specialist Program Amirah Nelson will provide an in-depth look at the program and an overview of topics such as:

• eligibility requirements;

• grant benefits for participating Specialists;

• application process; and
