Dr. Philip Grandinetti’s has been selected as a Fulbright U.S. Scholar for 2023-2024 for Italy!

Fulbright Scholar Awards are prestigious and competitive fellowships that provide unique opportunities for scholars to teach and conduct research abroad. Fulbright scholars also play a critical role in U.S. public diplomacy, establishing long-term relationships between people and nations. Alumni include 62 Nobel Laureates, 89 Pulitzer Prize winners, 78 MacArthur Fellows, and thousands of leaders and world-renowned experts in academia and many other fields across the private, public, and non-profit sectors.

Independent research and participant surveys confirm that Fulbright exchange experiences lead to greater international co-publication, continued international exchange, and stronger cross-cultural communication skills.

The benefits of a Fulbright Scholar Award extend beyond the individual recipient. Fulbright Scholars raise the profile of their home institutions as well. We hope that Ohio State University-Main Campus can utilize Dr. Philip Grandinetti’s engagement abroad to establish research and exchange relationships, connect with potential applicants and engage with your institution’s alumni in the host country.

Fulbright awards are designed to primarily cover in-country expenses related to specific projects, and we recognize that by providing course coverage, continued benefits, salary supplements, and other support, Scholars’ home institutions play an important role in enabling them to accept the award and take full advantage of this opportunity. The Fulbright Program is deeply grateful for the generous support that your and other U.S. institutions provide to award recipients, ensuring the continued success of both their faculty and the program.

Congratulations, Dr. Grandinetti’s!
