About this opportunity
The Fulbright U.S. Student Program offers Open Study/Research Awards to Honduras for U.S. citizens across all fields of study. This 10-month grant supports independent study and research projects in Honduras, with a flexible start date between August 2026 and March 31, 2027. Applications from recent graduates, master's degree students, and doctoral candidates are welcome. The program seeks candidates who are open to learning new cultures, adjusting to challenges of conducting research in under-resourced communities, and serving as cultural ambassadors for the United States. Grantees typically become involved in their communities through volunteering and teaching English while conducting their research. The award provides a monthly stipend, international travel benefits, health coverage, and research allowances to support the grant period.
