Fulbright-Hays Seminars Abroad Program
Travel Dates: Summer 2021
Application Deadline: December 18, 2020
The Fulbright-Hays Seminars Abroad Program, funded through the US Department of Education, offers short-term international summer programs for US educators in the social sciences, arts, and humanities to improve their understanding and knowledge of the peoples and cultures of other countries. Participants are expected to draw on their experiences to create new cross-cultural curricula for their schools back in the US. Two summer programs will be offered in 2021 to K-12 educators – to Iceland (for K-8 educators) and to Morocco (for 9-12 educators). A third program to Mexico is available to postsecondary educators. The program is open to teachers, administrators, librarians and curriculum specialists. It covers airfare, lodging, and program costs; participants pay a $650 cost share. Applicants must be US citizens or permanent residents with at least 3 years of full-time experience in their field.
