Fulbright Scholar-in-Residence Program: Reaching Out to Tribal Colleges and Universities Deadline: October 16, 2006 Website: http://www.cies.org/sir/SIR_Guidelines.pdf The Worldwide Fulbright Scholar-in-Residence Program brings Visiting Scholars from abroad to lecture at U.S. colleges and universities for one semester or one academic year. The program is especially appropriate for small liberal arts colleges, minority serving institutions and community colleges, many of which do not often have the opportunity to host visiting scholars and priority is given to these types of institutions. In addition to teaching undergraduate courses, Scholars give campus-wide and community lectures, help initiate international programs and contribute to curriculum development. Fulbright Scholars-in-Residence can have significant impact on U.S. colleges and universities, including their students, faculty, staff and communities. Although preference is given to proposals in the humanities or social sciences, a variety of other fields having an international perspective are welcome. Proposals are welcome from individual institutions, as well as from consortia of two or more institutions. Institutions may suggest suitable candidates or have CIES recruit them from a particular world area, working through Fulbright Commissions and U.S. Embassies abroad. Proposal guidelines and application may be downloaded from the website.
