Description
The Fulbright Award for Research in Normandy supports research projects of the applicant’s choosing at universities or research centers in France’s Normandy region. Offered through the Fulbright Scholar Program, with the Franco-American Fulbright Commission as the country contact, it welcomes early-career, mid-career, and senior academics across all disciplines. Research may be scientific, qualitative, quantitative, practice-based, or artistic, including experimental, clinical, and applied work.
Priority goes to projects aligned with Normandy’s regional specialization strategy, while high-quality proposals in other fields remain welcome. Research institutions are concentrated in Caen, Rouen, and Le Havre, with opportunities elsewhere in the region. Beyond advancing research, the award promotes international understanding and cooperation. Scholars may be asked to give public talks, mentor students, and engage with their host communities.
