'{{redirect2|Fulbright|Fullbright|the senator|J. William Fulbright|the indie video game developer|Fullbright (company)}} The '''Fulbright Program''', including the '''Fulbright–Hays Program''', is one of several [[United States Cultural Exchange Programs]] whose goal is to improve [[intercultural relations]], [[cultural diplomacy]], and [[intercultural competence]] between the people of the United States and other countries through the exchange of persons, knowledge, and skills. It is one of the most prestigious and competitive fellowship programs in the world. Via the program, competitively-selected [[American citizen]]s including students, scholars, teachers, professionals, scientists and artists may receive scholarships or [[Grant (money)|grants]] to study, conduct research, teach, or exercise their talents abroad; and citizens of other countries may qualify to do the same in the United States of America. The program was founded by [[United States Senator]] [[J. William Fulbright]] in 1946 and is considered to be one of the most widely recognized and prestigious scholarships in the world.<ref>{{Cite web | url=https://www.usnews.com/education/blogs/the-scholarship-coach/2011/11/25/get-noticed-through-prestigious-scholarships | title=Get Noticed Through Prestigious Scholarships | publisher=[[U.S. News & World Report]] | date=November 25, 2011}}</ref> The program provides 8,000 grants annually.<ref>{{Cite web | url=http://www.cies.org/about-us | title=Fulbright Scholar Program: About Us | publisher=Comparative and International Education Society}}</ref> The Fulbright Program is administered by cooperating organizations such as the [[Institute of International Education]] and operates in over 160 countries around the world.<ref>{{cite web | title=IIE Programs | publisher=Institute of International Education | url=http://www.iie.org/What-We-Do/Fellowship-And-Scholarship-Management/Programs}}</ref> The [[Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs]] of the [[U.S. Department of State]] sponsors the Fulbright Program and receives funding from the [[United States Congress]] via annual [[appropriation bill]]s.

William Fulbright]]}} In 1945, Senator J. William Fulbright proposed a bill to use the proceeds from selling surplus U.S. government war property to fund international exchange between the U.S. and other countries. With the crucial timing of the aftermath of the Second War and with the pressing establishment of the United Nations, the Fulbright Program was an attempt to promote peace and understanding through educational exchange. The bill devised a plan to forgo the debts foreign countries amassed during the war and in return for funding an international educational program. It was through the belief that this program would be an essential vehicle to promote peace and mutual understanding between individuals, institutions and future leaders wherever they may be.<ref name="Fulbright: The Early Years">{{cite web |title=Fulbright: The Early Years |publisher=U.S. Department of State |url=http://eca.state.gov/fulbright/about-fulbright/history/early-years}}</ref> {{quote|If we do not want to die together in war, we must learn to live together in peace.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/index.php?pid=12391 |title=Harry S.

Truman]]}} On August 1, 1946, President Harry S. Truman signed the bill into law, and Congress created the Fulbright Program in what became the largest education exchange program in history. Since it began, the program has operated on a bi-national basis; each country active in the Fulbright Program has entered into an agreement with the U.S. government. The first countries to sign agreements were China in 1947 and Burma, the Philippines, and Greece in 1948.<ref name="Fulbright: The Early Years"/> == Program == [[File:ASA conference 2008 - 23.JPG|thumb|2008 conference booth]] {{quote|Educational exchange can turn nations into people, contributing as no other form of communication can to the humanizing of international relations.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://eca.state.gov/fulbright/about-fulbright |title=Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs: About Fulbright |publisher=U.S. Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs}}</ref>|sign=Senator [[J.

Candidates recommended for Fulbright grants have high academic achievement, a compelling project proposal or statement of purpose, demonstrated leadership potential, and flexibility and adaptability to interact successfully with the host community abroad. Fulbright grants are offered in almost all academic disciplines except clinical medical research involving patient contact. Fulbright grantees' fields of study span the fine arts, humanities, social sciences, mathematics, natural and physical sciences, and professional and applied sciences.<ref>{{cite web |title=Fields of Study/Project Topics |publisher=U.S. Department of State |url=http://eca.state.gov/fulbright/fulbright-programs}}</ref> === Student grants === * The Fulbright U.S. Student Program offers fellowships for U.S. graduating seniors, graduate students, young professionals and artists to research, study, or teach English abroad for one academic year. * The Fulbright Foreign Student Program enables graduate students, young professionals and artists from abroad to conduct research and study in the United States.

The Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board is a twelve-member board of educational and public leaders appointed by the President of the United States that determines general policy and direction for the Fulbright Program and approves all candidates nominated for Fulbright Scholarships. Bi-national Fulbright commissions and foundations, most of which are funded jointly by the U.S. and partner governments, develop priorities for the program, including the numbers and categories of grants. More specifically, they plan and implement educational exchanges, recruit and nominate candidates for fellowships; designate qualified local educational institutions to host Fulbrighters; fundraise; engage alumni; support incoming U.S. Fulbrighters; and, in many countries, operate an information service for the public on educational opportunities in the United States.<ref>{{cite web |title=Fulbright Commissions |publisher=U.S. Department of State |url=http://eca.state.gov/fulbright/about-fulbright/funding-and-administration/fulbright-commissions}}</ref> In a country active in the program without a Fulbright commission, the Public Affairs Section of the U.S. Embassy administers the Fulbright Program, including recruiting and nominating candidates for grants to the U.S., overseeing U.S. Fulbrighters on their grant in the country, and engaging alumni. Established in 1919 in the aftermath of World War I, the [[Institute of International Education]] was created to catalyze educational exchange. In 1946, the U.S. Department of State invited IIE to administer the graduate student component and CIES to administer the faculty component of the Fulbright Program—IIE's largest program to date.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.iie.org/en/Who-We-Are/History |title=History &#124; Who We Are &#124; Institute of International Education |publisher=Iie.org |date= |accessdate=2012-06-11}}</ref> The [[Council for International Exchange of Scholars]] is a division of IIE that administers the Fulbright Scholar Program.

William Fulbright]]}} In 1945, Senator J. William Fulbright proposed a bill to use the proceeds from selling surplus U.S. government war property to fund international exchange between the U.S. and other countries. With the crucial timing of the aftermath of the Second War and with the pressing establishment of the United Nations, the Fulbright Program was an attempt to promote peace and understanding through educational exchange. The bill devised a plan to forgo the debts foreign countries amassed during the war and in return for funding an international educational program. It was through the belief that this program would be an essential vehicle to promote peace and mutual understanding between individuals, institutions and future leaders wherever they may be.<ref name="Fulbright: The Early Years">{{cite web |title=Fulbright: The Early Years |publisher=U.S. Department of State |url=http://eca.state.gov/fulbright/about-fulbright/history/early-years}}</ref> {{quote|If we do not want to die together in war, we must learn to live together in peace.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/index.php?pid=12391 |title=Harry S.

Since it began, the program has operated on a bi-national basis; each country active in the Fulbright Program has entered into an agreement with the U.S. government. The first countries to sign agreements were China in 1947 and Burma, the Philippines, and Greece in 1948.<ref name="Fulbright: The Early Years"/> == Program == [[File:ASA conference 2008 - 23.JPG|thumb|2008 conference booth]] {{quote|Educational exchange can turn nations into people, contributing as no other form of communication can to the humanizing of international relations.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://eca.state.gov/fulbright/about-fulbright |title=Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs: About Fulbright |publisher=U.S. Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs}}</ref>|sign=Senator [[J.

Candidates recommended for Fulbright grants have high academic achievement, a compelling project proposal or statement of purpose, demonstrated leadership potential, and flexibility and adaptability to interact successfully with the host community abroad. Fulbright grants are offered in almost all academic disciplines except clinical medical research involving patient contact.
