The Fulbright Seminar in American Studies is held annually in idyllic Strobl am Wolfgangsee, and is an opportunity for US and Austrian Fulbright students and scholars to connect and learn from each other. US Fulbright scholars give talks on topics related to American Studies from a variety of disciplinary perspectives (from portrayals of Austria in American films and gender differences in networking to African-American literature and a historical perspective on US presidential elections) and US Fulbright students share their research through poster presentations. The event serves as a pre-departure orientation for Austrian Fulbrighters and FLTAs, and Austrian students at-large also attend to learn about the Fulbright program, studying in the USA, and American Studies.
