Fulbright Scholar Program
The Fulbright program is an excellent opportunity for recent graduates and young faculty to travel and experience academic environments. From the Fulbright website:
For over 50 years, the Council for International Exchange of Scholars (CIES) has helped administer the Fulbright Scholar Program, the U.S. government's flagship academic exchange effort, on behalf of the United States Department of State, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. Founded in 1947, CIES is a private organization. It is a division of the Institute of International Education (IIE).CIES annually recruits and sends nearly 800 U.S. faculty and professionals to 140 countries on its traditional program and brings 800 foreign faculty and professionals to the U.S.
Mentioned recently on the SIGCSE mailing list, a number Fulbright programs are listed for the 2005-2006 academic year. If you're in the USA (and looking to get out), this can be an excellent (career-enhancing, life-enriching) way to do so.
