Fulbright Opportunities for U.S. Higher Education Administrators

The Fulbright International Education Administrators (IEA) Program is designed for experienced international education administrators and senior higher education administrators in the United States interested in learning about the societal, cultural, and higher education systems of France, Germany, India, Japan, or Korea.

Each country program offers an in-depth, two-week seminar comprised of group visits to colleges and universities, secondary level school systems, government agencies, and related educational organizations. IEA grantees network with host country counterparts to gain a basic understanding of their higher education system including program designs, organizational structures, quality assurance procedures, and credit and degree expectations, as well as social and cultural customs and norms.

Only applications demonstrating a strong desire to enhance study abroad faculty and student exchanges, international collaborative research or international curricular design at a U.S. 2- or 4-year college, university, or nonprofit international education exchange organization will be considered.

Upcoming Deadline: Applications for the Japan and Korea IEA Programs are due November 3, 2014.
