EH.N: ANN: Fulbright Scholar Opportunities in Economic History

[Anne Clift Boris]

Fulbright Scholar Program for US Faculty and Professionals

The Fulbright Scholar Program is offering over 100 lecturing, 
research or combined lecturing/research awards in history during the 
2009-2010 academic year, including awards in economic history in 
China, Italy, and Latvia, and a distinguished chair award in Denmark. 
U.S. Fulbright Scholars in over 130 countries around the world enjoy 
an experience of a lifetime, gaining a broad cultural perspective on 
their academic disciplines and connecting with colleagues at 
institutions around the globe.

Awards range from two months to an academic year. Faculty and 
professionals in history may apply for awards specifically in their 
field or for one of the many "All Discipline" awards open to any 
field. Grants are awarded to faculty of all academic ranks, including 
adjunct and emeritus. In most countries lecturing is in English, 
though awards in Latin America, Francophone Africa, and the Middle 
East may require proficiency in another language.

The application deadline for Fulbright traditional lecturing and 
research grants worldwide is August 1, 2008. U.S. citizenship is 
required. For other eligibility requirements, detailed award 
descriptions, and an application, visit our website at www.cies.org, 
or send a request for materials to apprequest at cies.iie.org.
