The Fulbright Specialist Program (FSP) is a dynamic initiative under the prestigious Fulbright Program, established in 2001 by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA). Implemented globally by World Learning, the program fosters collaboration between U.S. academics or professionals and institutions abroad.
In Nepal, the FSP empowers host institutions to design and propose projects within eligible disciplines that align with their organizational priorities. These projects are matched with highly qualified U.S. academics or professionals who bring their expertise to strengthen institutional linkages and advance mutual goals.
The program offers U.S. experts at the faculty or full professional level—such as academics, attorneys, journalists, scientists, economists, and specialists in other eligible fields—an opportunity to share their knowledge and skills through impactful, host-driven initiatives. These collaborations exchange knowledge, build institutional capacity, and create long-term partnerships that benefit both U.S. and international communities.
The Fulbright Specialist Program promotes long-term cooperation between U.S. and Nepali institutions, advancing priorities that align with U.S. Department of State goals and host institutions’ needs.
