Czech Republic - Open Study/Research Award

The U.S. Student Fulbright Program offers opportunities for recent graduates, postgraduate candidates, and developing professionals and artists to study and conduct career-launching research in the Czech Republic. Advanced graduate students capable of working independently are preferred. Applicants should have some experience in the proposed field of study. The grant is a 9-month opportunity starting in mid-September and ending in mid-June. The program includes a mandatory 3-day orientation in mid-September and a 2-day mid-year conference in early February. Applicants can propose independent research projects or pursue graduate degree enrollment at Czech universities. For independent research, applicants must present evidence of consultation with relevant scholars in the Czech Republic regarding the feasibility of their proposed projects and the availability of related resources. The project affiliation should typically be with a university, though non-university research institutions like the Czech Academy of Sciences are also welcome.
