“Being recognized as a leading institution for Fulbright scholars is truly an honor,” says Suzanne Austin, executive vice president for academic affairs and provost at the College of Charleston. “I am immensely proud of these dedicated scholars, who will not only share their expertise abroad but also return with new insights to enhance our campus community.”

The Fulbright Program was established over 75 years ago to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries. Fulbright is the world’s largest and most diverse international educational exchange program. The primary funding source for the Fulbright Program is an annual appropriation made by the U.S. Congress to the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.

The Fulbright U.S. Scholar Program is supported at the College of Charleston through the Office of Research and Grants Administration.
