Reaching out to diverse communities to foster understanding

Creating Mutual UnderstandingA uniquely effective, global and flexible form of public diplomacy, the Fulbright Program enables partici-pants from diverse cultural, ethnic and economic backgrounds to create ties of understanding and respectbetween the United States and other countries. The Program is sponsored by the Bureau of Educational andCultural Affairs (ECA) of the U.S. Department of State, with additional funding from foreign governments,higher education institutions, and private sector partners and donors. IIE and its Council for InternationalExchange of Scholars (CIES) have been proud partners in the Fulbright Program since its start in 1946.

Fulbright Scholar Program Drives Campus Internationalization

From community colleges to liberal arts colleges to research universities, administrators continued to makeinternationalizing their campuses a top priority. The Fulbright Scholar Program is a vital resource. In 2009,the Scholar Program sent more than 850 U.S. faculty abroad, and 850 scholars visited the United States toteach, conduct research and become more familiar with the diversity of U.S. higher education. An additional400 U.S. scholars helped launch new programs, train faculty and build educational capacity abroad. TheScholar Program’s “multiplier effect” infused cross-cultural perspectives into existing curricula, revitalizedteaching methods, encouraged study abroad, and opened doors for scholars to teach in new places. On U.S.campuses alone, returned Fulbright scholars taught an estimated 76,000 students.

The year 2009 marked a new application record for U.S. scholars and saw several firsts. Grants to Indiaalmost doubled; a new program opened opportunities for Iraqi scholars; U.S. scholars helped reform thecurriculum at Hong Kong universities; Sweden welcomed its first Distinguished Chair in Alternative EnergyTechnology; and 35 scholars from 24 countries collaborated to help universities find innovative solutions topressing social and economic problems.

IIE’s Scholar Rescue Fund would like to thank the law firm of Akin GumpStrauss Hauer and Feld and in particular partner Steven H. Schulman forproviding extensive pro-bono legal services to assist threatened scholars whoare part of the SRF program.

The Institute is grateful to the many donors who enable the Scholar

Rescue Fund to save the lives, voices and ideas of persecuted

scholars around the world. Through generous donor support, the

Scholar Rescue Fund not only provides grants for threatened

scholars to pursue their scholarship in freedom and safety but also

builds endowments so that scholar rescue remains a permanent

part of the Institute’s mission into the future.

62 Nobel LaureatesIn 2009, IIE was proud to add two more names to its list of Nobel Laureates. OliverWilliamson, a Fulbright Scholar to Italy in 1999, received the Nobel Prize in Economicsand Charles K. Kao, an IIE-programmed Distinguished Visiting Lecturer from HongKong, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics.

This brings to 39 the number of Nobel Prize winning alumni of the Fulbright Program(which the Institute has been privileged to administer for the U.S. Department of Statesince the program’s inception in 1946), along with 16 other IIE administered granteesand 7 of the Institute’s Trustees and advisers. In total, 32 have won in the sciences,17 in economics, 4 in literature and 9 for peace—a glowing achievement in which wetake exceptional pride.

There can be no more powerful testimony to the unique value of international educationand exchange programs than the accomplishments of these Nobel Laureates, hailingfrom so many different nations, whose early promise was recognized and supportedby the Fulbright Program and IIE. These greatly gifted men and women—and the nextgeneration of international exchange students the Institute is currently identifying—aretruly the hope of the world, working to serve humankind by conquering disease,advancing world peace, reducing global poverty, preserving the environment andcreating a more just and prosperous global society.
