The Fulbright Visiting Scholar Program for Faculty, Researchers and Arts Professionals awards grants for Greek scholars and creative professionals to conduct advanced research, lecture, or undertake independent artistic or creative projects at U.S. universities, museums or cultural organizations. Awards support initiatives that promote academic collaboration and international understanding between Greek and U.S. institutions.
