Fulbright-EPA awards

The Fulbright Commission of Ireland annually awards grants to Irish and EU postgraduate students, scholars, and professionals to study, research, and lecture in the United States and for Americans to do the same in Ireland.

Together with the Fulbright Commission, we offer a unique opportunity for an Irish postgraduate student or scholar in the field to travel to the U.S. to study or research in the areas of addressing climate change evidence needs, facilitating a green and circular economy, delivering a healthy environment and protecting and restoring our natural environment. For all grants, the Fulbright Commission seeks excellent applicants with strong leadership potential and a commitment to the ethos of being a Fulbrighter.
