International Faculty Exchange

International Faculty Exchange

UT Arlington is looking to grow its international faculty exchanges as part of its 2030 Strategic Plan: Shared Dreams, Bright Future. The Division of Faculty Success seeks to support faculty in developing international exchange opportunities by keeping an updated list of opportunities and resources.

FULBRIGHT SCHOLARS PROGRAM

In addition to the traditional Fulbright Scholars programs, Fulbright also offers opportunities with shorter commitments. The Fulbright Specialist Program sends faculty to serve as expert consultants on curriculum, faculty development, institutional planning, and related subjects at academic institutions abroad for two to six weeks. The Fulbright International Education Administrator Awards give international education professionals and senior higher education officials an opportunity to attend a two-week intensive seminar to learn about the host country’s education system and build networks with U.S. and international colleagues.

100K STRONG IN THE AMERICAS

100,000 Strong in the Americas uses the principle of leveraged innovation with higher education institutions (HEIs) that demonstrate the greatest commitment and innovation toward increasing study abroad opportunities between the United States and countries in the Western Hemisphere. In applying for the Innovation Fund grants, HEIs will be asked to demonstrate how they will assert leadership in implementing the innovations proposed, how they will address on-campus barriers to student mobility, how they will maintain student engagement, and how they will commit to making concrete changes to expand access to study abroad as sending and/or hosting institutions.
