Fulbright awards scholarships to EU citizens to study, lecture or conduct research in the U.S. on the development of the EU, EU policies, or the U.S.-EU transatlantic agenda for a period between three months and one academic year. Grants are open to all academic fields of study, but must relate to U.S.-EU relations or EU affairs. The Fulbright Schuman Program is administered by the Fulbright Commission in Belgium and is jointly financed by the U.S. Department of State and the Directorate-General for Education and Culture of the European Commission.
