Fulbright Scholar Program for Faculty and Professionals

The Fulbright Scholar Program for Faculty and Professionals is offering research-only, lecturing, and lecturing-research awards to the Baltic states, NIS, and countries in Centraland Eastern Europe for academic year 2004-05. Awards range from 2 to 10 months and opportunities are available in a broad range of fields, including women's studies. Thenewest initiative in the region is a special program with Kosovo. While some awards specify project and host institution, there are a number of open "All Discipline" awards that allow candidates to propose their own projects and determine their host institution affiliations. Foreign language skills may be required for certain research projects, but lecturing awards are in English. Members of the AWSS may wish to share this information with specialists in women's studies in other fields, e.g. American Studies, who may be interested in Fulbright grant opportunities.

The deadline for applications is August 1, 2003.
