Description
This Fulbright Scholar award offers U.S. academics the opportunity to teach, conduct research, or combine both activities at Qatar University in Doha. Awardees may design and deliver undergraduate and/or graduate courses, undertake independent or host-designated research, and advise on curriculum and program development. Scholars are expected to engage with faculty and students, mentor, share expertise through public talks, and contribute to the university's academic and institutional growth. While proposals from all disciplines are welcome, there is particular interest in projects related to technology, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, business, security, and energy. The program aims to promote mutual understanding and international collaboration between the U.S. and Qatar.
