Fulbright Grants for Scholars

A grant from Fulbright Denmark is not just a bag of money, but a commitment to the academic exchange between the U.S. and Denmark. A Fulbright Denmark grant is also recognized as a mark of distinction. Those receiving this grant have been evaluated both in the U.S. and Denmark not only on their academic, professional, and personal achievements but also on their potential to build upon these to become leaders in their fields. Fulbright Denmark grants for scholars are awarded to the most talented scholars who demonstrate outstanding academic performance and will actively contribute to the promotion of mutual understanding as cultural ambassadors of Denmark. The grants support one or two semesters (minimum four and maximum ten months) for self-planned research and teaching stays at a U.S. university. Both a research and teaching component are required. Grantees are expected to remain at their host institution throughout their grant period with limited travel abroad, and will receive comprehensive support and advising throughout the entire process.
