The Fulbright UC Davis Chair Program recognizes faculty members who are accomplished teachers and researchers and whose work demonstrates the potential to make significant contributions to contemporary societies around the globe. The University of California, Davis, enables global and societal impacts through innovation, creativity, and discoveries. In support of these missions, the Fulbright Commission and the University of California, Davis offer the following call for applications.

The Program will give one award to a Chilean scholar to spend one academic term sharing knowledge and performing research at UC Davis. The grant will be awarded for a stay equivalent to one academic term in accordance with the calendar of UC Davis academic quarters (Fall 2023: end of September – December; Winter 2024: January – March; or Spring 2024: April – June).

The Program is intended to strengthen collaborations in both research and pedagogy between Chilean institutions and UC Davis. Candidates for the Fulbright UC Davis Chair Program (open to any discipline) will submit a detailed proposal that explains how they will advance their research and publicly disseminate knowledge, highlighting specifically why a period of time spent at UC Davis will be beneficial. All proposals should also include the titles and brief outlines of one/two public lectures that the candidate will deliver while in residence at UC Davis.

Proposals for the public dissemination of knowledge should include a detailed description of how the Fulbright Chair is prepared to contribute to undergraduate, graduate, and/or professional student enrichment through collaborations, seminars and/or workshops on the UC Davis campus, rather than through a single stand-alone course syllabus.

Research proposals should include a detailed research plan, including timeline, expected resource needs, proposed research site or laboratory, and proposed affiliation.
