Cultural Programs and Exchange Opportunities

Exchange Programs:

Central to Embassy public diplomacy activities are academic, educational, citizen, arts, and professional exchange programs. Partnering with the Fulbright Commission and AMIDEAST, we regularly conduct Citizen Exchanges, the Undergraduate Scholarship Program, and the Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI) study, business, legal and democracy exchange programs.

Our largest exchange program is the International Visitor Program which sends scores of Egyptians to the U.S. each year for two to three week professional tour of the United States.
