The U.S. Embassy is pleased to announce its call for applications for the 2022 Study of the U.S. Institutes (SUSI) for Scholars and Secondary Educators. \u00a0Funded by the U.S. government, SUSI exchanges are intensive five-to-six-week post-graduate level academic programs at various academic institutions in the United States to provide foreign university faculty, scholars, and secondary educators the opportunity to deepen their understanding of U.S. society, culture, values, and institutions. \u00a0The deadline for application is\u00a0January 9, 2022.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The ultimate goal of SUSI is to strengthen curricula and to enhance the quality of teaching about the United States at academic institutions abroad. \u00a0SUSI for Scholars comprise the following themes in U.S. Studies: American Culture and Values; Journalism and Media; Religious Pluralism in the United States; U.S. Economics and Business; U.S. Foreign Policy; and Workforce Development. \u00a0The Embassy invites experienced and highly motivated university faculty, scholars, researchers, practitioners, specialists, and other professionals from institutions of higher education or research focused organizations to apply for the program.<\/p>\n
