First Steps to Fulbright: DUCOM Edition
Wednesday, May 20, 2026
12:00 PM-1:00 PM
Are you interested in research or graduate study abroad? The Fulbright US Student Program provides grants for one year of research, graduate study, or teaching English in 140+ countries. In the past, several Drexel medical students and biomedical graduate students have received the grant and spent a year doing research abroad, either in conjunction with their graduate research or as an EDGE year for between MD years 3 and 4.
This info session will provide details about the program, the Drexel application process, and tips for crafting a competitive application. Students from outside of DUCOM are welcome to attend and will still find the session useful.
We will be joined by Mathew Mitchell, Fulbright US Student Program Research Award to Hungary, 2025-2026, Drexel MD 2027.
Read more about Mathew and the other alumni attending Fulbright info sessions here.
Applications submitted in the next Fulbright application cycle (2026 deadline) will be for grants to commence during the 2027-28 academic year. The Fulbright US Student Program requires applicants to be US citizens; citizens of other countries can explore other Fulbright programs through their country of citizenship's Fulbright Commission.
Can't make it to this session? RSVP anyway to be included in follow-up communications, including a copy of the notes and slides.
