Administrators: Did you know that the Fulbright Scholar program offers two-week grants for administrators?
The International Education Administrators (IEA) awards are seminars designed to help U.S. international education professionals and senior higher education officials create empowering connections with their counterparts and higher education systems of other countries. All travel, accommodations, and schedules are provided by the Fulbright IEA Program.
Selected applicants have the opportunity to learn about the host country’s education system as well as establish networks of U.S. and international colleagues over the course of an intensive two-week grant period. Awardees return with enhanced ability to serve and encourage international students and prospective study-abroad students.
Activities include seminars, campus visits, cultural tours, and briefings with faculty and administration, government officials, and leading educational experts in the host country. Current IEA participating countries include: Japan, Korea, France, and Germany, with India and Taiwan to be added in February.
Application deadlines begin Nov. 1, 2022, for awards beginning 2023.
