The Fulbright Program is the U.S. Government's premier scholarship program. It enables U.S. students and artists to benefit from unique resources in every corner of the world and students, teachers, and academics from all over the world to study in the U.S. The Fulbright Program provides all the chance to gain international competence in an increasingly interdependent world. The U.S. Congress created the Fulbright Program in 1946, immediately after World War II, to foster mutual understanding among nations through educational and cultural exchanges. Senator J. William Fulbright, sponsor of the legislation, saw it as a step toward building an alternative to armed conflict. The Fulbright 50th Anniversary Commemoration was celebrated in 1996.
