The purpose of the Fulbright-Botstiber Award in Austrian-American Studies is to promote the understanding of the historical relationship between Austria and the United States. Therefore, it is open to all scholars of Austrian and American studies whose project proposals contribute toward this objective in terms of combinations of teaching and research. Only applications that are in line with the bilateral mission of the Botstiber Institute for Austrian-American Studies (BIAAS) will be considered.
This award is a flexible combination of teaching, advising students, collaborative research, and/or enhancing institutional collaboration that entails teaching one or more courses (classes meet once a week for 90 minutes). The format, content, and level of the individual courses (advanced undergraduate and graduate), associated activities, and research focus are negotiated on a consensual basis with the host institution, contingent upon the grantee's interests and expertise and the host institution's needs.
This teaching and research grant is open to faculty of all academic ranks with a PhD, appropriate teaching experience, and relevant expertise.
All applicants must have US citizenship. (Having a US green card, permanent residency, or a residency permit is not sufficient.)
Instruction is in English. Some knowledge of German is advantageous for Fulbright scholars but not required.

This Fulbright-Botstiber Professorship planted the seeds for valuable research that will help us understand how journalists are navigating the digital landscape. Through interviews with Austrian and American lifestyle journalists we’ve created a dataset that paints a picture of a field negotiating the entrance of new players on the field as well as new activities that necessarily reflect increased pressure on the journalists on the job.
