CU Boulder has been named a Fulbright Top Producing Institution for U.S. Scholars for the 2023–24 academic year by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. The recognition is given to the U.S. colleges and universities that produce the highest number of applicants in a given year. With 10 grants in 2023-24, CU Boulder is the No. 3 top producer among doctoral institutions nationally, behind Penn State University and the University of Florida.
“It’s exciting to see CU Boulder recognized for the outstanding international contributions our faculty make through the Fulbright U.S. Scholar program,” said Deborah Viles, director of the Office of Top Scholarships at CU Boulder. “These experiences are not only personally and professionally rewarding, but also make lasting impacts through the relationships faculty build in their host country. I’m so pleased to be partnering with the Research & Innovation Office, which provides grant writing assistance for faculty through Donna Axel’s expertise and co-hosts information sessions.”
