Does the U.S. Embassy sponsor American Studies programs at local Armenian universities and colleges?
The U.S. Embassy does not directly sponsor American Studies programs in Armenia, nor does the U.S. State Department have special funding for American Studies programs abroad. It does, however, provide numerous opportunities for academic and cultural exchange between Armenia and the United States. The U.S. Embassy also supports a number of programs for American citizens that directly benefit Armenian host universities. Q: What programs does the U.S. Embassy sponsor that could support my American Studies program? A: The U.S. Embassy sponsors student and professional exchanges, including the Study of the United States Institutes for Foreign Scholars, the Fulbright Scholar program, the Hubert H. Humphrey program, the Junior Faculty Development program, the Teaching Excellence and Achievement program, and the U.S. Speaker and Specialist program.
