IEW 2020 Logo

It’s International Education Week (October 26-30th), and we are celebrating global engagement at UNC Greensboro! The week would not be complete without sharing all The Fulbright Program opportunities available to students, faculty, and staff.

Fulbright is the most widely recognized and prestigious international exchange program in the world, supported for more than half a century by the American people through an annual appropriation from the U.S. Congress and by the people of partner nations.

Please join us in these events and help us spread the word about these amazing opportunities!
