Two University of Nebraska-Lincoln scholars have received Fulbright Senior Specialist grants from the Council for International Exchange of Scholars.
William Grange, associate professor of theatre arts, is teaching communications and journalism this summer at the Film Acting School of Camera Acting Centrum in Cologne, Germany.
Joseph Sherrard, professor of civil engineering, will teach a six-week course in environmental engineering this summer at Del Valle University in Guatemala City, Guatemala.
The Fulbright Senior Specialists Program offers two- to six-week grants to leading U.S. academics and professionals to support curricular and faculty development and institutional planning at academic institutions in 140 countries around the world. Created to complement the traditional Fulbright Scholar Program, which requires a commitment of two months to an academic year, the Senior Specialists Program aims to increase the number of opportunities for faculty and professionals to go abroad on Fulbright grants.
The Fulbright Scholar Program is sponsored by the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs and managed by the Council for International Exchange of Scholars.
