Fulbright Commission marks 25 years in Czech Republic

The Czech Republic’s Fulbright Commission, which guarantees outstanding Czech students, scientists and lecturers scholarships to US universities and vice versa, marks 25 years of its existence. Over that period, the programme enabled 900 students and scientists from the Czech Republic to travel to the US and some 700 American scholarship recipients come to the Czech Republic. Up till now, the US government has donated some 20 million US dollars to subsidize the exchange programmes.
