Peru - Open Study/Research Award

The Fulbright Commission encourages applications from early-career professionals, recent graduates, and graduate students interested in conducting research for nine months at a higher education institution, non-profit organization, or research center in Peru. Applicants are required to affiliate with one of these institutions and submit a well-crafted research plan. Preference will be given to research projects conducted outside of Lima and/or hosted by public institutions. Applications are welcome from recent graduates, master's degree students, and doctoral candidates across all fields of study. Applicants should submit a well-defined project proposal that includes a clear plan for engagement with the host community, demonstrates a strong working relationship with a proposed affiliate, and articulates how the proposed grant activities align with the applicant's long-term goals. Proficiency in Spanish is an important consideration in the selection process.
