Description
The Fulbright Schuman Program supports European citizens undertaking study, research, and lecturing in the United States across all academic fields. Projects must address U.S.-EU relations, EU affairs or policy, or EU institutions. The program offers approximately 10–15 scholarships and includes doctoral research, postdoctoral research and lecturing, and international educator pathways, alongside security studies and innovation awards.
Although listed by Fulbright Denmark, the program is administered by Fulbright Belgium—the Commission for Educational Exchange between the United States of America, Belgium and Luxembourg. It is jointly financed by the U.S. State Department and the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Education and Culture. The exchange promotes mutual understanding through cultural diplomacy and seeks participants who will share their knowledge and experiences after returning home.
