Fulbright in Egypt

Greetings! I am writing regarding a fully-funded, short-term opportunity to travel to Egypt that is currently available through the Fulbright Specialist Program (FSP). We are seeking a highly qualified individual to serve as a Specialist for the project. The FSP is part of the Fulbright Program, the U.S. Department of State’s flagship international educational exchange program, and pairs highly qualified U.S. academics and professionals with institutions abroad to share their expertise, strengthen institutional linkages, hone their skills, and gain international experience, while building capacity at their overseas host institutions though a short-term, project-based exchange. The project, ‘SCZONE’s Green Ports Strategy’ (P008229), would involve one visit to the Suez Canal Economic Zone in Suez, Egypt. Ideally the project would be conducted during any 42 days between July 1 and November 30, 2024, with flexibility depending on the selected candidate’s availability. Full project details, including a special announcement about our Egypt projects, are included in the attached Open Project Announcement. The grant will include international round-trip economy class airfare, transit allowance ($100), all applicable visa fees, a daily honorarium ($200), enrollment in a limited health benefits program, lodging, meals, and in-country transportation. Interested applicants should submit a Resume/CV and brief Statement of Interest (max 400 words) to fulbrightspecialist@worldlearning.org no later than 11:59 PM ET on Monday, August 14, 2023. Further details and application instructions are available at https://fulbrightspecialist.worldlearning.org/ – please note that U.S. citizenship is required to serve as a Fulbright Specialist.
