Arvoisa vastaanottaja,

Kirjoitan teille uudesta Fulbright-Nokia Distinguished Chair in Information and Communications Technologies -stipendiohjelmasta, joka saattaa kiinnostaa erityisesti teitä ja/tai laitostanne. Ohjelma antaa suomalaisille korkeakouluille mahdollisuuden kutsua amerikkalainen tieto- ja viestintätekniikan asiantuntija luennoimaan 3-9 kuukaudeksi. Stipendi rahoitetaan yhdessä Nokia Säätiön kanssa.

Hakuaika lukuvuoden 2011-2012 luennoitsijavierailuihin on meneillään Yhdysvalloissa ja päättyy 2.8.2010. Korkeakoulut voivat päästä mukaan ohjelmaan toimittamalla kutsukirjeen haluamalleen henkilölle. Luennoitsija liittää korkeakoululta saamansa kutsun omaan Fulbright -hakemukseensa 2.8.2010 mennessä, jolloin amerikkalaisten luennoitsijoiden Fulbright -hakuaika Yhdysvalloissa päättyy.

Tarkemmat tiedot Fulbright-Nokia Distinguished Chair in Information and Communications Technologies -stipendiohjelmasta saa tämän viestin lopusta löytyvästä englanninkielisestä tiedotteesta, jota voi halutessaan lähettää myös kollegoille Yhdysvalloissa. Suomalaisille korkeakouluille tarkoitettu ohjeistus amerikkalaisesta Fulbright -luennoitsijaohjelmasta löytyy osoitteesta http://www.fulbright.fi/files/2747_AmerikkalaistenFulbright-luennoitsijoiden...

Ystävällisin terveisin,
