Fulbright Program at UCLA provides exchange opportunities for visiting scholars

July 2, 2012 – Every year, scholars from around the world come to the United States through the Fulbright Visiting Scholar Enrichment Program to pursue graduate study, advanced research, doctoral degrees and university teaching.

Ann Kerr, the Fulbright Visiting Scholar Enrichment Program coordinator at UCLA, talks about her efforts to engage visiting scholars in the community. Also, scholars Mykola Volkogon and Diego Ubfal discuss aspects of the Fulbright Program, including the Fiat Lux seminar “Perceptions of U.S. Abroad: Discussions with Visiting Fulbright Scholars.”

The Fulbright Program on campus is housed in the International Institute at UCLA. For more information, visit the graduate student fellowship office in Murphy 1252 or online here, or join Speaking International, a new club at UCLA associated with the Fulbright Program.
