Eleven Clark University<\/a> graduate and undergraduate students received funding from the Fulbright U.S. Student Program<\/a> and other competitive programs for teaching assistantships, research and study abroad.<\/p>\n

“The fact that 11 of our students have received such highly competitive and prestigious awards in nine different countries on four continents speaks to the global reach and reputation that Clark enjoys. I couldn’t be happier for them,” said Michael Butler, an associate professor of political science<\/a> who serves as Clark’s Fulbright program adviser.<\/p>\n

“We at Clark are proud to have such a large and outstanding cohort of Fulbright and other award winners this year. The scope of their research projects, teaching assignments and country placements is a testament to the quality of these terrific students and graduates,” said Butler, who was a Fulbright Scholar in 2014-15<\/a>.<\/p>\n
