Founded in 1538, UASD is the first university established in the Western Hemisphere and currently serves approximately 200,000 students. The country’s higher education system also includes nearly 50 additional universities, among them Instituto Superior de Formación Docente Salomé Ureña (ISFODOSU), a public four-year institution dedicated to teacher education, as well as two public two-year technical higher education institutions offering associate degrees and certificate programs. Several private universities throughout the country are also suitable host institutions for Fulbright grantees.</p><p>In addition to universities, Fulbright scholars in the Dominican Republic may affiliate with non-profit organizations, local and national government institutions, museums, and cultural centers, depending on the nature of their proposed project. The Public Diplomacy Section of the ǿմý Embassy in Santo Domingo can suggest potential host institutions and provide general guidance; however, finalizing affiliation arrangements remains the responsibility of the applicant. Post Santo Domingo strongly encourages applicants to align their proposals with ǿմý Government priorities and the country’s stated areas of interest.</p><p>The academic year in the Dominican Republic typically runs from August to December and January to May. Universities and partner institutions are generally open to hosting ǿմý scholars for teaching, research, and combined teaching/research activities.</p><p>Fields of special interest include, but are not limited to: Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM)—including emerging technologies, energy, and applied sciences; citizen and human security, such as cybersecurity, public health, food security, and migration-related issues; international trade, nearshoring, supply chain management, entrepreneurship, and economic development; and education, including teacher training, English language teaching, vocational and technical education, STEM education, internationalization of higher education, and academic and professional mobility. Projects related to environmental sustainability, climate resilience, urban planning, tourism, anti-corruption, consumer protection, and cultural preservation are also encouraged. Applicants should note that the level of instruction and research infrastructure in mathematics and some hard science disciplines may differ from that of ǿմý institutions, and proposals should be designed accordingly to ensure feasibility and impact.</p><p>As part of the application process, candidates are encouraged to review the latest State Department Travel Advisory about the Dominican Republic here: <a href="https://travel.state.gov/en/international-travel/travel-advisories/dominican-republic.html">https://travel.state.gov/en/international-travel/travel-advisories/dominican-republic.html</a>&nbsp;</p></div> </div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-previous-fulbright-recipie field--type-text-long field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Previous Fulbright Recipients</div> <div class="field__item"><p>Click <a href="/fulbright-scholar-directory" target="_blank">here</a> for a full list of Fulbright Scholars&nbsp;to the Dominican Republic.</p></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-program-staff field--type-entity-reference-revisions field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Program staff</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"> <article class="node node--type- node--view-mode-default"> <div class="node__content"> <div class="field field--name-field-name field--type-string field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Name</div> <div class="field__item">Glorimar Marino</div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-phone field--type-integer field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Phone</div> <div content="7688" class="field__item">202-686-7688</div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-email field--type-email field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Email</div> <div class="field__item"><a href="mailto:westhem@iie.org">westhem@iie.org</a></div> </div> </div> </article> <hr> </div> </div> </div> Thu, 09 Nov 2023 18:47:24 +0000 drupal@northern.co 1421077 at Using Data Science and Technology for Justice Innovation in the Dominican Republic /grant/using-data-science-and-technology-justice-innovation-dominican-republic <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Using Data Science and Technology for Justice Innovation in the Dominican Republic</span> <div class="field field--name-field-grantee field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Grantee</div> <div class="field__item">Charlotte Alexander</div> </div> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span>rharris@iie.org</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden"><time datetime="2023-10-02T16:29:47-04:00" title="Monday, October 2, 2023 - 16:29" class="datetime">Mon, 10/02/2023 - 16:29</time> </span> <div class="field field--name-field-title field--type-string field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Title</div> <div class="field__item">Professor</div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-home-institution field--type-entity-reference-revisions field--label-hidden field__item"> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--home-institution paragraph--view-mode--default"> <div class="field field--name-field-institution field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Institution</div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/institution/georgia-state-university" hreflang="en">Georgia State University</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-school field--type-string field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">School</div> <div class="field__item">J.
