Description

Fulbright Science and Technology Scholars may propose to conduct research, teach, teach/research, or carry out a professional project in an institution in Argentina. Scholars with teaching-only or teaching/research grants may engage in activities such as conducting seminars for undergraduate or graduate students or faculty, student advising, curriculum development, strategic planning etc. The expectation is that teaching/research scholars conduct independent or collaborative research. Applicants choosing a teaching/research grant should elect the percentages of time that they spend teaching and researching. Applicants must specify this percentage split in their application. Scholars may also define additional activities beyond the scope of their core research, including but not limited to advising on ongoing and future research, delivering seminars or short courses to local researchers, and assisting in cooperative research projects. Applicants may propose an appropriate host. The award is open to early career academics, mid-career academics, senior academics, and community college faculty. PhD (or other terminal degree) is required. Candidates with little or no academic teaching or research experience in Argentina are encouraged to apply. An invitation letter is preferred. The letter must include the course(s) that the U.S. scholar is expected to teach, if applicable, and/or briefly outline the research project the scholar will undertake. The letter must be signed by the highest authority in the school/department or research facility. It is recommended for applicants to have an intermediate level of knowledge of the Spanish language. Professional working proficiency in Spanish is strongly preferred. Scholars without demonstrated Spanish language skills should be sure to address in their proposal how their project is feasible without these language abilities and have their host institution corroborate this detail in the letter of invitation. Applicants with limited Spanish eligibility are actively considered. Applicants who are native speakers do not need to complete an external evaluation. All applicants must submit two recommendation letters. Letters should be from those who know the applicant and the applicant's work well.
