Non-Degree Research Programs for Doctoral Students<\/strong><\/h1>\nFulbright Bulgaria gives the opportunity to young researchers in advanced stages of their PhD studies to work in elite universities and institutes in the USA. Candidates from all areas of studies (except clinical medicine and dentistry) are eligible to apply. The program provides funding for 4-6 months of research. Three or four grants are supported each year.<\/p>\n
Candidates are selected at an annual competition. The application deadline is in December, while the research visit itself starts in the next academic year. All interviews with the short-listed candidates are held online. Applicants are informed in advance about the date and time of the interview. Dates and times are fixed.<\/p>\n

The grantees in this program have the status of \u201cVisting Researchers\u201d. This means that they are not eligible to enroll in courses at their host institutions but can use the libraries and other informational resources, visit open lectures, and especially, work in cooperation with their US academic supervisor. \u00a0<\/p>\n

The Fulbright Commission works with a large number of accredited, high-ranking private and public universities in the U.S.<\/p>\n
For information on potential US host universities, you can consult:<\/p>\n

Write to your US counterparts with a proposition to host you as a Visiting Researcher for the grant period. It is important to emphasize that you are not looking for any funding on the part of the host institution, as you will be financed by your Fulbright grant. It is a good idea to approach US researchers, working in fields closely corresponding to your own research interests.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The invitation letter should be issued by a department or faculty with official letterhead. It should confirm the US university agrees:<\/p>\n
\n- to host the doctoral researcher for the grant period (start and end date quoted)<\/li>\n
- to provide access to libraries and sources of information<\/li>\n
- to designate an academic supervisor<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

Non-Degree Research Programs for Doctoral Students<\/strong><\/h1>\nFulbright Bulgaria gives the opportunity to young researchers in advanced stages of their PhD studies to work in elite universities and institutes in the USA. Candidates from all areas of studies (except clinical medicine and dentistry) are eligible to apply. The program provides funding for 4-6 months of research. Three or four grants are supported each year.<\/p>\n
Candidates are selected at an annual competition. The application deadline is in December, while the research visit itself starts in the next academic year. All interviews with the short-listed candidates are held online. Applicants are informed in advance about the date and time of the interview. Dates and times are fixed.<\/p>\n

The grantees in this program have the status of \u201cVisting Researchers\u201d. This means that they are not eligible to enroll in courses at their host institutions but can use the libraries and other informational resources, visit open lectures, and especially, work in cooperation with their US academic supervisor. \u00a0<\/p>\n

The Fulbright Commission works with a large number of accredited, high-ranking private and public universities in the U.S.<\/p>\n
For information on potential US host universities, you can consult:<\/p>\n

Write to your US counterparts with a proposition to host you as a Visiting Researcher for the grant period. It is important to emphasize that you are not looking for any funding on the part of the host institution, as you will be financed by your Fulbright grant. It is a good idea to approach US researchers, working in fields closely corresponding to your own research interests.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The invitation letter should be issued by a department or faculty with official letterhead. It should confirm the US university agrees:<\/p>\n
\n- to host the doctoral researcher for the grant period (start and end date quoted)<\/li>\n
- to provide access to libraries and sources of information<\/li>\n
- to designate an academic supervisor<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

and institutes in the USA. Candidates from all areas of studies (except clinical medicine and dentistry) are eligible to apply. The program provides funding for 4-6 months of research. Three or four grants are supported each year.<\/p>\n Candidates are selected at an annual competition. The application deadline is in December, while the research visit itself starts in the next academic year. All interviews with the short-listed candidates are held online. Applicants are informed in advance about the date and time of the interview. Dates and times are fixed.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ disabled_on=”on|on|on”
