Fulbright U.S. Scholar Program Regional Spotlight: Sub-Saharan Africa

Opportunities are available to teach and conduct research at educational institutions and research centers throughout Sub-Saharan Africa.

With 45 awards in over 25 countries there is diverse range of opportunities in the Sub-Saharan Africa region, from teaching cyber-security and digital forensics in Botswana to researching in science and technology in South Africa. There are also several awards open to all disciplines. 

Applications will be accepted until September 16, 2019.
