The Institute of International Education (IIE) an independent non-profit organization founded in 1919, is a world leader in the exchange of people and ideas. IIE administers over 200 programs serving more than 20,000 individuals each year. IIE administers the Fulbright Program and the Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship Program on behalf of the U.S. Department of State, and the National Security Education Program David L. Boren Scholarships and Fellowships.
IIE is working to increase the number and diversity of American students who go abroad and to encourage study in places of growing strategic importance to the United States. To support this goal, IIE launched this portal which offers you a single point of entry to access valuable study abroad information, including news coverage, academic articles and research, fact sheets for your students, and dates and deadlines for major scholarship and fellowship programs.
