Funded by the University of Notre Dame Australia through the Fulbright Scholar Program, this award supports outstanding U.S. academics undertaking four months of research at the university’s Broome, Fremantle, or Sydney campus. Projects may address any discipline but should align with the university’s research strengths and priorities, address significant issues relevant to the university, and foster Australia–United States relationships.
The award combines research with academic and community exchange. Applicants should describe plans to engage faculty and students through curriculum consultation, graduate or faculty seminars, guest lectures, or workshops. Scholars may also be asked to give public talks, mentor students, and engage with the host community to promote international understanding and cooperation.
