Predoctoral Research. For Academic Year 2025-2026
Postgraduate research / studies in Spain, either for independent research or research in support of a master’s thesis or doctoral dissertation.
Objectives | Up to 11 awards are offered mainly for independent postgraduate research in areas of mutual U.S./Spanish interest. Projects dealing with contemporary issues are especially encouraged. Fulbright Spain's Open Study/Research awards facilitate access to research and studies representing a wide range of disciplines. The aim of these awards is to strengthen educational and cultural relationships between the U.S. and Spain and to provide grantees with opportunities for research collaboration that extend into the future. Core funding for this program is provided by the U.S. Government and the Spanish Ministries of Foreign Affairs and of Education. Engaging in university coursework may be considered, but not as the sole purpose of the project, and university fees are not covered by the grant benefits. Course listings may not be confirmed until after universities begin and enrollment of foreign students is not guaranteed.
