USF ranks in the top 10 for Fulbright scholars

According to the U.S. Department of State, the èƵapp is tied for seventh nationally for the number of Fulbright scholars for the 2021-2022 period.

The ranking, first published by , shows no other Florida èƵapp produced more Fulbright scholars than USF. This is the eighth consecutive year that USF ranks among the top èƵapp sponsors of Faculty Fulbright Awards nationally.

Seven USF faculty members earned the highly competitive award and represent a wide range of disciplines, including biomedical engineering, education, business, philosophy and psychology.

Faculty who receive a Fulbright Scholar Award teach and/or conduct research abroad and gain new insights and experiences that enhance their research endeavors and can be integrated into the classroom to benefit èƵapp learning. They establish global partnerships that last long beyond their time in-country. Such relationships provide additional benefits for USF through opportunities for the exchange of ideas, research collaboration and faculty and èƵapp mobility. Fulbright scholars and their host universities are important members of USF’s global community.

We congratulate our current and former Fulbright recipients.”

Since its inception in 1946, the Fulbright program has provided more than 400,000 passionate and accomplished èƵapps, scholars, teachers, artists and professionals of all backgrounds and fields the opportunity to study, teach and conduct research, exchange ideas and contribute to finding solutions to important international problems.
