Latvia Open Study/Research Award

The Fulbright research program in Latvia gives participants the opportunity to conduct research for one academic year at a university or relevant non-university institution, such as a research lab, archive, library, or museum. During the 9-month grant period (usually starting in September) grantees can broaden their professional, scientific, and artistic skills. The Fulbright Program in Latvia offers a unique opportunity for Fulbrighters to conduct research and engage in their Latvian communities. Latvia is known for its cultural heritage, and Fulbright participants can immerse themselves in its richness. Well-qualified candidates at all degree levels, including doctoral to the dissertation level, will be considered. Graduate-level students are preferred. Candidates must be mature, self-motivated individuals who are capable of working independently. The program provides opportunities to conduct research at various Latvian archives, libraries, museums, and research centers, particularly in fields such as History, Music, Latvian Language, and Political Science.
