Temple University was recognized for the fourth time by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs as a Fulbright U.S. Student Program Top Producing Institution.
Among the Fulbright recipients is Temple alum Jonathan Falciani, Class of 2021, of Bensalem, who headed to Denmark to work at the National Institute of Aquatic Resources.
The distinction was announced in a special listing published by the Chronicle of Higher Education. Temple was one of only 56 doctoral degree-providing institutions in the United States to receive this honor.
The Fulbright U.S. Student Program provides funding to conduct research or creative projects, pursue graduate study, or teach English abroad. During their grants, Fulbright recipients meet, work, live with and learn from the people of the host country, sharing daily experiences.
Temple’s current class of Fulbright recipients ties a university record, with 16 students once again carrying the distinction. An additional three students have been named Fulbright alternates.
