Established in 1946, the Fulbright Program aims to increase mutual understanding between the peoples of the United States and other countries, through the exchange of persons, knowledge, and skills.

In particular, the U.S. Student Program awards grants to U.S. citizens in all fields of study; operates in over 140 countries worldwide; awards about 1,100 grants annually to U.S. students to study overseas for one academic year of study, research, or teaching assistantship experience.
