The Fulbright Scholar-in-Residence Program brings visiting scholars and professionals from abroad to lecture at U.S. colleges and universities for one semester or one academic year at the request of U.S. Scholar-in-Residence Program participating institutions.

Interested U.S. institutions submit proposals to the Council for International Exchange of Scholars (CIES) to host a foreign scholar. Although preference is given to proposals in the humanities or social sciences, other fields focusing on international issues will be considered. The program is especially appropriate for small liberal arts colleges, minority-serving institutions, and community colleges, many of which do not often have the opportunity to host visiting scholars. The Fulbright Commission will seek appropriate candidates as requested by participating institutions.

The role of Argentina’s Fulbright Commission is to assist in the search for an Argentine professor based on the profile suggested in the project.
