Fulbright Scholarship - Information Session and Q&A

Course description

The Australian-American Fulbright Commission offers Scholarships to Australian citizens across all career stages. Awardees take part in a bi-lateral academic and cultural exchange, pursuing research or study and experiencing life in the United States of America, and bringing back their knowledge and experience to share with their communities in Australia. There is no better time to apply- as the Commission has more than doubled their offering of scholarships in 2019!
