Serbia - Open Study/Research Award

The Fulbright Open Study/Research Award for Serbia provides opportunities for U.S. students and scholars to conduct independent research or pursue graduate degree studies in Serbia for nine months. The award supports both independent study/research projects and graduate degree enrollment. Grantees will be placed at Serbian universities or research institutions and are expected to engage with the host community. The program begins in October 2026 and ends in June 2027. Candidates must be mature, self-motivated individuals capable of working independently. While Serbian language skills are not required, they are encouraged to promote deeper engagement with the host community. The award provides a monthly stipend, international travel benefits, health coverage, and additional allowances for settling in, research materials, and local transportation.
