The Fulbright Program offers a wide range of educational and cultural exchange opportunities to U.S. citizens as well as citizens of other nations. Listed below are links to the many different programs that exist for scholars and professionals, students, and Fulbright alumni.
Fulbright exchanges are U.S. government programs administered through the Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs and the Department of Education's Office of Postsecondary Education. They are governed by policies and procedures established by the J. William Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board.

The value of the Fulbright Program is best expressed by the words of its founder, Senator J. William Fulbright:
"Educational exchange can turn nations into people, contributing as no other form of communication can to the humanizing of international relations. Man's capacity for decent behavior seems to vary directly with his perception of others as individual humans with human motives and feelings, whereas his capacity for barbarism seems related to his perception of an adversary in abstract terms, as the embodiment, that is, of some evil design or ideology."
