Future looks bright for Fulbright Scholar
A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity awaits this year’s winner of the Fulbright Scholarship being offered by the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO).
Valued at up to $A 40,000, the Fulbright Scholarship is for Australian citizens wishing to carry out research or study in the United States of America in nuclear science or technology. The winner will also get an unrivalled opportunity for Australians seeking professional development in the United States.
The Fulbright Program is one of the largest and most prestigious educational exchange programs in the world. The Australian-American Fulbright Commission is one of over 50 Fulbright Commissions in the world who work with the United States Department of State to facilitate the Fulbright Program between the United States and over 150 countries worldwide.
Fulbright Professional Scholarships are available for junior to mid-career professionals, poised for advancement to a senior role from the private, public and not-for-profit sectors, or junior to middle level academics whose professional focus is industry related.
The Fulbright Scholar will receive $5,200 per month (tax free in Australia) for a maximum period of six months and costs for international travel valued at $6,300.
As well as providing financial support, the Fulbright Scholarship supports a program of professional development in Australia and the United States, including orientation programs and opportunities for networking with Australian, U.S. and international Fulbright Scholars and alumni.
