Fulbright Research Grants (Chercheuses et Chercheurs)

The Fulbright Chercheur mobility grants fund research projects for post‑doctoral researchers and scholars seeking to go to universities or cultural institutions in the United States to carry out research and develop collaborations with American counterparts. The programme includes national and region/university-specific variants tied to French regions and partner institutions. A reciprocal programme exists for U.S.-based researchers wishing to come to France.

Research mobility to U.S. universities and cultural institutions and support for developing bilateral research collaborations; additional fellowships from private partners may complement support.

Open to post‑doctoral researchers and researchers (chercheuses et chercheurs) affiliated with French higher education or research institutions; regional/university variants are available for applicants linked to specific French regions or universities.

Applicants select the national or the regional/university programme corresponding to their geographic situation or affiliation; separate programme pages provide application details.
