The Fulbright Program is an international academic exchange programme established in 1946 and named after U.S. Senator J. William Fulbright. It offers competitive, merit-based opportunities for students, scholars, researchers, teachers, professionals and other participants to study, teach, conduct research and carry out academic projects abroad.
The programme currently operates in more than 160 countries. U.S. citizens can apply for opportunities in participating countries around the world, while citizens of other participating countries may apply for study, research, teaching and other academic activities in the United States.
The Fulbright Program has operated in Poland since 1959. In Poland, it is co-funded by the governments of Poland and the United States and administered by the Polish-U.S. Fulbright Commission.
The Commission manages a range of exchange programmes for Polish and U.S. students, researchers, scholars, educators and institutions. Available grants, eligibility requirements, application procedures and deadlines vary depending on the programme and academic year.
Detailed information about current opportunities for U.S. citizens wishing to study, teach or conduct research in Poland is available on the website of the Polish-U.S. Fulbright Commission and on the official Fulbright Program website HERE.
