For nearly 80 years, the Fulbright program has worked to integrate the world through global learning in higher education. The opening 2025 GovState Research Days keynote includes three Fulbright scholars who will share their lens on global learning through different perspectives and Fulbright opportunities: scholar, scholar-in-residence, specialist, and research abroad. A Q and A with the scholars will follow the panel presentations.
