The scholar selected for this grant is expected to conduct cutting-edge STEM research preferably at one of Hungary's high priority research facilities or universities. Scholars in the arts whose projects are related to natural sciences, mathematics and engineering are also encouraged to apply as STEAM is a new concept in Hungary. Additional teaching and outreach activities at other Hungarian institutions are also possible. Ph.D. (or other terminal degree) is required. Applicants may be mid-career academics or senior academics. The Ministry of Culture and Innovation is sponsoring this award to attract U.S. scholars to several high-priority research facilities in Hungary, all of which have strong university affiliations. These priority areas include, but are not limited to: autonomous (self-driving) vehicles, artificial intelligence (AI), 5G networks, molecular biology, physics and material science etc. These institutions are ELI-ALPS Institute in Szeged, ZalaZONE Test Track in Zalaegerszeg, and the Biological Research Centre, Szeged, affiliated with the University of Szeged. While U.S. scholars are free to associate with any university in Hungary, the following departments have direct relationships with the priority institutes listed above and have strong ties to the Fulbright Commission in Hungary: Vehicle Industry Research Centre, Szechenyi Istvan University, Gyor; Department of Transportation and Vehicle System Control, Budapest University of Technology and Economics; Department of Telecommunications and Media Informatics, Budapest University of Technology and Economics; Research Group on Artificial Intelligence, University of Szeged and Hungarian Academy of Science; and the Department of Atomic Physics, ELTE Institute of Physics, Eotvos Lorand University, Budapest. Scholars, of course, may seek affiliation with any accredited research facility and university not on the aforementioned list. The application also requires two recommendations. Please visit the award's website or contact the Council for International Exchange of Scholars for more information.
