CIES would like to bring to your attention the start of the 2000-2001
competition for Fulbright awards to faculty and professionals and ask
your help in making these opportunities widely known. The competition
opens March 1, with an August 1 deadline for Fulbright lecturing and
research grants worldwide. Please see the attached announcement.
The Fulbright Scholar Program offers opportunities in all
disciplines and professional fields. Professionals outside academe
participate, as do university faculty and administrators from 4-
year colleges and universities, community colleges, and
minority-serving institutions.
Each year's grantees include not only scholars from academe, but
also professionals from the business community, independent
scholars, artists, research scientists, applied professionals in
technical fields, government employees, journalists, lawyers, and many
others.
If you think this program would be of interest to your colleagues,
please forward the attached announcement. As the competition deadline
is August 1, it would need to be sent no later than June/early July.
We very much appreciate your assistance.
