Fulbright Center grants for Americans coming to Finland
The Fulbright Center awards grants to American graduate students, teachers, lecturers, and scholars to study, teach, or pursue research in Finland.
The Fulbright Program, based on bi-lateral cultural exchange agreements, is the cornerstone of the United States government's international academic exchanges. The Fulbright Program includes several separate programs, through which over 150 countries participate in academic exchanges with the United States.
In Finland the Fulbright Program is administered by the Finnish Fulbright Commission, the Fulbright Center, a private, non-profit organization funded by the Finnish, US and Canadian governments, and the Finland-America Educational Trust Fund, founded by the US and Finnish governments. Each year, the Fulbright Center awards grants to more than 80 Finnish and American students and professionals. The funding awarded to Finnish and American grantees totals approximately 1 million dollars per year.
