Program John. William Fulbright was founded in 1946 to promote mutual agreement between the American people and people from around the world. Today, the Fulbright program is one of the most recognized and prestigious programs in the world. Hundreds of graduates of this program around the world occupy high positions in politics, education, journalism and the private sector. Thirty-nine Fulbright alumni from eleven countries are Nobel laureates (including Mohamed Yunus and Milton Friedman). Eighteen graduates of the program were either heads of government or held senior government positions (including former Brazilian President Cardoso and former Swedish Prime Minister Karlsson). A graduate of the Fulbright program Boutros Boutros-Ghali served as Secretary General of the UN.
Fulbright grants are awarded through an open competition. This contributes to the fair selection of the most deserving candidates and to the achievement of the objective of the programme, namely mutual understanding and mutual benefit by contributing to the communities not only of the host country but also of the home country.
