Upcoming Events
Fulbright Scholars
The University of Delaware is proud of the long tradition of our faculty excellence being recognized by the Fulbright Faculty Scholar program (see list below). This year, UD will be recognized as a Top Producing Institution for having the highest number of accepted applicants to the Fulbright U.S. Student and U.S. Scholar Program.
Resources
The Fulbright Scholar Program has a large amount of online resources and series of webinars for applicants.
If you have questions about the Faculty Fulbright Awards, you can also reach out to UD’s Fulbright Liaisons, Dana Veron or Kristin Bennighoff.
In addition, Faculty Affairs offers programming in partnership with the Center for Global Programs and Services and the Honors College to connect and support the UD Fulbright community.
In the fall, during International Study Abroad week we celebrate recent awardees, while in the spring we host a panel discussion and invite a Fulbright Ambassador to campus to speak to interested applicants. We also have an opportunity for previous awardees who have served on review committees to provide insight on the application process.
