For Faculty
Faculty Fulbright Information
Established in 1946, the Fulbright Program aims to increase mutual understanding between the peoples of the United States and other countries, through the exchange of persons, knowledge, and skills. Each year USF faculty and students contribute to and participate in many Fulbright programs. To find out about the opportunities available visit: http://www.cies.org/.
USF Fulbright Faculty Advisor
Dr. Darlene DeMarie serves as USF's Fulbright Faculty Advisor. She was a Fulbright Scholar to South Africa and Hungary, and served as a Fulbright reviewer for CIES and for the American Embassy in South Africa. Under her leadership, USF has experienced unprecedented success with the Fulbright Program.
Dr. DeMarie offers a series of workshops during the spring and summer semesters to introduce faculty to the range of opportunities available through the Fulbright Program and to assist faculty with the writing process associated with a successful Fulbright application. Faculty who have completed the workshops and who attended subsequent writing groups have been more likely to be awarded a Fulbright Scholar Award. All workshops are in person, and faculty members are encouraged to attend 4 different Fulbright workshops. You will need to register to attend, and space is limited to 6 people per workshop.
The workshops for Spring/Summer 2022 have concluded. Please check back for our next round.
Please RSVP to fulbright@usf.edu no later than 5 days ahead of each workshop that you wish to attend. The final workshop in the series - Advanced Writing Group - is only available to those applicants who attended a Beginners’ Writing workshop and who have completed narratives considered competitive. This workshop is by appointment only. Contact fulbright@usf.edu to register.
