Fulbright Greece State Scholarships Foundation

The State Scholarships Foundation (I.K.Y.) in cooperation with Fulbright Greece announces a call for a mobility scholarship programme in Greece for U.S. PhD candidates for the academic year. The stated purpose is to support and enhance the mobility of scientists and researchers between Greece and the United States, while strengthening cooperation between Greek and U.S. universities and research centers.

For the academic year, up to four scholarships will be awarded to U.S. PhD candidates who are enrolled in accredited U.S. institutions of higher education. Each selected scholar can complete a six-month research mobility to Greek higher education institutions or research bodies/organizations in Greece as part of their PhD dissertation.

Selection is based on an application process under the mobility scholarship call. The programme results for the academic year show four scholarships were awarded to U.S. PhD candidates and that those scholars were informed about their selection.

The support duration described for the scholarship is a six-month research mobility in Greece. The scholarships include travel expenses for going to Greece and returning to the U.S., a settling-in allowance, monthly maintenance allowance, and expenses for the purchase of required research materials. No post-scholarship obligation is stated in the provided text.
