The Fulbright Scholar Program offers over 400 awards in more than 135 countries for U.S. citizens to teach, conduct research and carry out professional projects around the world. In recent years, dozens of MU faculty have received this prestigious award.
Fulbright awards are available from two months to an academic year. While foreign language skills are needed in some countries, most Fulbright lecturing assignments are in English. See the Fulbright website for specific information about available opportunities, including eligibility criteria and timelines.
