As a foreign language teaching assistant (FLTA), you have the opportunity to spend an entire academic year on a US college campus. You will work together with experienced German professors to animate German instruction as a native speaker and cultural ambassador in both formal and informal learning settings. In addition to teaching German, you also have the opportunity to pursue your own interests and participate in courses on a part-time and tuition-free basis.
Join Fulbright Austria at the online unileben 2020 and learn more about teaching German, studying, and doing research in the US with a grant from Fulbright Austria.

The Austrian Fulbright Student Program provides application-coaching and generous scholarship support to Austrian students who wish to pursue a master’s degree in the US. Austrian Fulbright students enhance their skill sets in challenging programs of their own choice and enjoy all of the benefits of being members of an international network of Fulbright grantees and alums in Austria and the US.

Fulbright Austria is also home to EducationUSA, an advising center that welcomes students who are interested in pursuing undergraduate and graduate study opportunities in the US. While Fulbright Austria does not offer grants to complete a BA or PhD in the US, EducationUSA is more than happy to provide you with information about the US higher education system and advice on the US university application and enrollment process.
